Yeah, it does not seem like an easy disease to do anything about. Not like we're going to be able to purge it from all the dust.
Absent work on a treatment/cure, best we can probably do is education and maybe get people to wear masks while doing dusty work outside?
It does seem like the medical community isn't really _that_ informed about it either. I basically had to diagnose myself and convince the doctor at the clinic I went to.
The only people who seem that informed about it are whoever writes that "places where certain fungal infections are common" warning in every advert for immunosuppressants.
