The mucormycosis cases in Nagpur region are increasing fast and are likely to cross 2,000 mark within a few days. In the last 24 hours, six cases have been reported taking the cumulative affected figure to 1960.

The dreaded fungal infection, commonly called ‘Black Fungus’, is said to be spreading among the patients who had suffered nCorona 19 infection. Moreover, those who were administered corticosteroids and/or had co-morbidity, are the major sufferers.

The threat of this fungal infection is not over as yet. If not detected at its early stage, it may be fatal. Even if the patient survives, the effect is horrible. Many persons had to be operated upon and lost one or both eyes.
