  • "We observed five consecutive cases of Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis in subjects working in a salami factory. The workers had to clean the white mould growing on salami surface using a manual wire brush. The five patients (four female) had a mean age of 39 +/- 15 years; two were smokers. Three patients had an acute clinical presentation with fever, dyspnoea, dry cough, oxygen desaturation, and presented at the emergency department with suspected diagnosis of community acquired pneumonia.

  • If, poor fool, the gods you displease
    Be quick, frail wretch, and act to appease.
    If they’re not placated
    In wrath unabated
    They’ll smite with salami brusher’s disease.
