    Medical experts say one reason for the surge is that more people have compromised immune systems, including cancer patients and those taking medicines after organ transplants. Compounding the problem, research shows, is that rising temperatures appear to have expanded the geographical range of some deadly fungal pathogens, and possibly made them better adapted to human hosts.

    Literally the last of us

      no. it’s literally not.

      fungal infections always target people with compromised immune systems. one of the first indicators of late stage AIDs was fungal infections.

      fungus does not effect healthy people apart from ringworm and other topical things.

        But it’s getting warmer

        Which may make more of them able to survive in humans, as per the article, which I quoted?
