COVID-19 Special: 'Black fungus' infections rise in India
In India, some COVID-19 patients are developing a rare but dangerous infection, "black fungus." It can spread to through the body and be fatal when untreated.

The fungal infection is increasingly being seen in vulnerable patients in India, as the country’s health system struggles to save lives during the pandemic.
- A typically rare fungal infection called mucormycosis has surged in India recently, primarily affecting people recovering from COVID-19.
- Experts say this type of fungal infection is extremely rare and that it may be affecting people whose immune systems have been damaged by the coronavirus.
- Experts say the use of steroid drugs in these patients may partially explain some of the surge, while the immune-compromised state of COVID-19 patients could explain others.

hosay liao. prices of black fungus should cum down as there is now an over-supply.
States across India ordered emergency measures on Thursday to counter a surge in the rare deadly "black fungus" infection among coronavirus patients.
Gujarat and Telangana states declared epidemics of mucormycosis, while New Delhi and other major cities have opened special wards to treat thousands of cases of the infection.
Black fungus is caused by organisms called mucormycetes, which can enter the body through breathing or skin injuries.
The infection kills more than 50 per cent of sufferers within days. In some cases, eyes and upper jaws are removed by surgeons to save lives.
Some doctors say there has been panic use of steroids to combat COVID-19, which has helped the spread of black fungus.

Mucormycosis: The 'black fungus' maiming Covid patients in India
On Saturday morning, Dr Akshay Nair, a Mumbai-based eye surgeon, was waiting to operate on a 25-year-old woman who had recovered from a bout of Covid-19 three weeks ago.
Inside the surgery, an ear, nose and throat specialist was already at work on the patient, a diabetic.
He had inserted a tube in her nose and was removing tissues infected with mucormycosis, a rare but dangerous fungal infection. This aggressive infection affects the nose, eye and sometimes the brain.
After his colleague finished, Dr Nair would carry out a three hour procedure to remove the patient's eye.
"I will be removing her eye to save her life. That's how this disease works," Dr Nair told me.
Even as a deadly second wave of Covid-19 ravages India, doctors are now reporting a rash of cases involving a rare infection - also called the "black fungus" - among recovering and recovered Covid-19 patients.
What is mucormycosis?
Mucormycosis is a very rare infection. It is caused by exposure to mucor mould which is commonly found in soil, plants, manure, and decaying fruits and vegetables. "It is ubiquitous and found in soil and air and even in the nose and mucus of healthy people," says Dr Nair.It affects the sinuses, the brain and the lungs and can be life-threatening in diabetic or severely immunocompromised individuals, such as cancer patients or people with HIV/AIDS.
Doctors believe mucormycosis, which has an overall mortality rate of 50%, may be being triggered by the use of steroids, a life-saving treatment for severe and critically ill Covid-19 patients.
Steroids reduce inflammation in the lungs for Covid-19 and appear to help stop some of the damage that can happen when the body's immune system goes into overdrive to fight off coronavirus. But they also reduce immunity and push up blood sugar levels in both diabetics and non-diabetic Covid-19 patients.
It's thought that this drop in immunity could be triggering these cases of mucormycosis.

Mucormycosis or black fungus is an aggressive and invasive fungal infection caused by a group of molds called mucormycetes.
It can affect various organs but is currently manifesting as an invasive rhino-orbito-cerebral disease, affecting the ear, nose, throat, and mouth. It is not contagious but can cause a lot of damage internally and can be fatal if not detected early
The common name 'black fungus’ is in reference to the blackening that is characteristic of the disease.
