There are very few cases of black fungus infection in humans. Black fungus occurs in soil, plants, spoiled fruits and vegetables and sometimes humans also get infected after coming into contact with it.

Doctors say that steroid is being used to treat corona infection. Steroid affects immunity and black fungus catches only those with weak immunity. This is the reason why most patients recovering from corona, especially diabetic patients are prone to black fungus.
