Ahmedabad: The corona epidemic is receding across the country but in the meantime another havoc has started wreaking havoc. Yes, in fact, we are talking about mucomyosis, that is, black fungus. Corona infection has not yet subsided in a way that mucosacosis, the black fungus, has started engulfing people. Let me tell you that mucomycosis, the black fungus, has also been declared an epidemic. Let me tell you all that the people in Gujarat are the worst affected by black fungus at the moment.
In fact, more than 2,000 cases have been recorded here. With this, the state has now become a new hotspot for mucomycosis. The Central Government says that 2,281 cases of black fungus have been reported in Gujarat so far. This figure is the highest for any State in the country.
