Three hospitalized in Napa County as California's fatal wild mushroom outbreak continues to spread
Three adults hospitalized in Napa County after eating toxic wild mushrooms as California's deadly poisoning outbreak claims four lives, officials warn.
The public health department stressed that cooking, boiling, freezing or drying toxic mushrooms will not make them safe to eat.
Symptoms often do not appear until 6 to 24 hours after ingestion. Early warning signs include severe stomach pain, cramping, vomiting, diarrhea, confusion and a drop in blood pressure.
Officials said victims should also place any uneaten portions of the mushroom in a paper bag or waxed paper and refrigerate it, or take photos of the cap, stem and underside to help medical experts identify the toxin.
