BEWARE : BLACK FUNGUS Mucormycosis EVEN A BIGGER KILLER AFTER COVID - Treatment cost is hefty
Due to over steriods by poor doctor prescription and naive patients cases of black fungus – Mucormycosis are shooting up
The major reason is high sugar due to steriods. Hence make sure all your people near dear ones keep checking sugar during and after covid
The economic and mental impact of black fungus is disatrous
Liposomal Amphotericin B, which costs around Rs7,800 for one injection, is being sold for Rs11,000 to Rs14,000 and even more. With each Mucormycosis patient requiring around 60 injections of Amphotericin B, the bill for just this one injection is between Rs6. 60 lakh and Rs 8. 40 lacs.

Misuse of Steroids during Covid Treatment is causing this. The spread is quite limited/rare, though severity is high, media just trying to sensationalize it. Traders accordingly already hoarding medicines used for its treatment so they can earn 5x 10×.

‘Black fungus’ cases in Covid patients are rising, says AIIMS chief, warns against misuse of steroids
AIIMS Director Randeep Guleria on Saturday said that mucormycosis, also known as ‘black fungus’, is not any new infection but the number of cases has increased due to Covid-19.
AIIMS Director Randeep Guleria also warned against the spread of mucormycosis and recommended that with COVID-19 cases increasing, it’s of paramount importance that protocols of infection control practices are followed at hospitals.
He said that misuse of steroids is a major cause behind the infection (Mucormycosis). Chances of fungal infection increase in the patients who are diabetic, COVID positive and are taking steroids. To prevent it, we should stop the misuse of steroids.
Dr Suresh Kumar, MD LNJP Hospital said,“Steroid use must be reduced. If given to patient with O2 level over 90, black fungus is a possible side-effect. Early diagnosis critical. CT scan of face would detect this infection. Antifungal drug Amphotericin being used for treatment.”
Don’t mind but I will suggest patients to try playing Xylophone loudly. Spiderman movie mein woh Black Spiderman pe jo Fungus tha woh aise hi nikla tha end mein.

It’s business for some over others’ lives. Same like US and it’s allied colonizers’ war industries.
In pharmacies in my place, a unbranded Chinese oximeter (all those sold online by Indian companies with their respective stickers pasted are unbranded Chinese ones) that somehow works for over a year were worth 300-500.
Are now sold at 5k to others and 2k to their doctor friends.
Even to the jerk that I gave free treatment thrice is not lessening the price.
His wife is due again I’ll get my money back this time.
