> It often attacks people with respiratory issues who need invasive devices to treat their lung issues. A lot of people got such treatment for covid. First, it doesn't "often" attack anyone -- there have only been several thousand cases, total. Second, you can't bundle together "was on a ventilator at some point" with "is currently on a vent and in a hospital". Very different, and again, the latter is where this fungus is being seen. People in hospitals, having serious full-time care. These are not "lung issues", they're acute, near-death interventions. Third, people in the ICU on a vent are at serious risk for everything -- a rare fungus is far down the list, below things like strep, H. inf., S. aureus, E. coli, etc., which are ubiquitous, and all over your body, right now. If you're not worried about those, you shouldn't worry about this.
