From Wiki....."On 26 and 27 September 1950, the U.S. Navy conducted a secret experiment named "Operation Sea-Spray" in which balloons filled with S. marcescens were released and burst over urban areas of the San Francisco Bay Area in California. Although the Navy later claimed the bacteria were harmless, beginning on September 29, 11 patients at a local hospital developed very rare, serious urinary tract infections. One of the afflicted patients, Edward J. Nevin, died.[27] Cases of pneumonia in San Francisco also increased after S. marcescens was released.[28][29] (That the simulant bacteria caused these infections and death has never been conclusively established.) Nevin's son and grandson lost a lawsuit they brought against the government between 1981 and 1983, on the grounds that the government is immune,[30] and that the chance that the sprayed bacteria caused Nevin's death was minute.[31] The bacterium was also combined with phenol and an anthrax simulant and sprayed across south Dorset by US and UK military scientists as part of the DICE trials which ran from 1971 to 1975.[32]" But "they" wouldn't do that now!!
A friend has a house near the LA airport. They had Safeco insurance. Earlier last year, during renewal time, they sent a letter to him claiming he needed a new roof or they would cancel. A call to them and they claimed that they flew a drone over the house (I kid you not) and saw "mold". Anyway, the roof was only 8 years old on a 20 year roof. They cancelled. He had to scramble to find, not as good, insurance from some smaller company. BTW near the beach everything has mold on it. We cancelled all our Safeco policies.
