"Unbeatable" superbug fungus sickens hundreds across the U.S., CDC says

Am I mistaken, or are the areas where this fungus is concentrated basically sanctuary cities/states? Once again, more diseases probably brought to you courtesy of illegals.

[DannyTN]

There’s a fungus among us.

[ClearCase_guy]

Seems serious. But “unbeatable” is just hysteria.

Gotta love those open borders right lefties

[Buckeye McFrog]

Tonight's feature on Monster Chiller Horror Theater is The Unbeatable Super Bug Fungus starring Dean Jones, Stefanie Powers, Keenan Wynn and Buddy Hackett.

““unbeatable” is just hysteria.”

Well, it is cbs after all.

“...30–60% of people with C. auris infections have died”

That’s one heck of a range!

The fungus kills you but a spark in your brain stem happens and you turn into the walking dead

[DannyTN]

LOL!

[trisham]

And so it begins..

Mother Nature is taking control of the overpopulation.

:: Candida auris, which preys on people with weakened immune systems ::

Really? Does the fungus instinctively know this or is there some type of sentient “awareness” that allows it to single these weak people out?

[rktman]

OMG!!!!!! A virtual pandemic. Six hundred out of 300 million. We’re doomed I tell ya, doomed. Butt super bugs seem to be on the rise. Almost as if they adapt to new scenarios. Weird huh?

[cuban leaf]

Hundreds? If that means 500, that is one in every 2,500 people. And depending on where you live, it may be much lower than that. And it only makes you “sick”. So does food poisoning. And one guy - ONE - died. I’ll bet more die from food poisoning.

And if you don’t live in the few hotspots, why would you even worry about this.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

Over time, that number is expected to rise to equal the worldwide death rate of 100%.

The question to ask is, what percentage died as a result of contracting C. auris? Is C. auris confirmed as the Cause of Death on the coroner’s report?
