As the dreaded Black Fungus or Mucormycosis disease -- spreads across Uttar Pradesh, a case of White Fungus has been found in a patient from Mau district.

This is probably the first case of White Fungus that has been traced in India. White fungus was detected in a 70-year-old man who had been earlier treated for Covid-19 at a Delhi hospital in April and was discharged following his recovery.
