Oh, that's an interesting possibility. For example, the manchineel (also known as death apple) tree is dangerous and can cause blistering/burning of the skin. It is native to Caribbean islands, and the sap is very toxic. According to a quick google search, it can be found on SXM. https://www.treehugger.com/why-manchineel-might-be-earths-most-dangerous-tree-4868796

I have found that if you are out in the sun from 11:30 to 12:30 in April, you will be sunburned if you are not under an umbrella.

Not to ask a stupid question, but what did the SXM doc tell your Virginia friends that it was?
