Deadly Fungus Could Expand Globally as Climate Warms
New research warns that climate change—specifically rising temperatures and humidity—could expand the habitat of deadly fungi such as Aspergillus fumigatus by up to 77% by 2100, putting millions more people in Europe, Asia, and the Americas at risk of severe lung infections like aspergillosis. The fungus poses the greatest danger to immunocompromised individuals and those with lung conditions, with high drug resistance and diagnostic challenges complicating treatment. Aspergillus flavus, another species, threatens food security by infecting crops and producing toxic aflatoxins. Experts highlight that over 90% of fungal species remain unidentified, further complicating surveillance and response. The study urges urgent research, enhanced surveillance, and climate change mitigation to address the growing health and food security threats. Researchers caution that without intervention, the rapid spread of deadly fungi could become a new global norm.
