Shownotes

Available June 3rd- A deadly outbreak begins at a sushi restaurant in Bozeman, Montana. Diners develop rapid, severe gastrointestinal illness. Some collapse. Two people die. And the only clue pointing investigators toward a cause is also the hardest one to believe: morel mushrooms.

A Morel Dilemma is a serialized outbreak investigation from The Poison Lab, following the story in real time as clinicians, toxicologists, public health officials, mycologists, and families try to answer one unsettling question:

How could a prized edible mushroom suddenly be linked to death?

This is a story about poisoning, public health, uncertainty, and the uncomfortable process of discovering that something we thought we understood may be far more complicated than it seemed.
