Abstract
:
During the second wave of Covid-19 in India, doctors recently reported a outbreak of
cases involving a rare infection-called the “black fungus”-among recovering and recovered
Covid-19 patients. The frequency of bacterial and fungal coinfections has been continuously rising.
At the same time, invasive pulmonary aspergillosis is increasingly being recognized in association
with nCOVID-19. Currently, India is suffering from a newly maiming disease associated with
nCOVID-19 infected patients; at the time of the treatment, it can be developed into rhino-orbital
mucormycosis. There are some approved antifungal therapies for treating this fungal infection. The
background, risk factors, and associated reports about the infection are described in this review.
