(CNN) In early May, doctors in India began raising the alarm about a rise in mucormycosis a rare and potentially deadly infection also known as black fungus.
Many of those being infected are coronavirus patients, or those who have recently recovered from Covid-19, whose immune systems have been weakened by the virus or who have underlying conditions most notably diabetes.
In the past few weeks, thousands of black fungus cases have been reported across the country, with hundreds hospitalized and at least 90 dead. Two states have declared it an epidemic, and the central government has made it a notifiable disease.
