Each year, over 100 MN residents return from visiting the southwest U.S. with a fungal lung infection. Minnesotans who visit warmer climates can be exposed to the soil fungus that causes Valley Fever. If you develop a fever and cough after a trip to the Southwest, talk with your doctor about Valley Fever testing.
