Fungal diseases start where life happens.

Fungal Disease Awareness Week is September 14-18.

You can be exposed to fungi that cause pneumonia through activities like gardening, hiking, & touring caves.

Fungal skin infections can be confused with other skin conditions. If you use a non-prescription antifungal, avoid products containing steroids, which may worsen the infection.

There are hundreds of types of fungal infections but only a few antifungals. As fungal diseases & antimicrobial-resistant fungal infections increase, the need for new antifungal treatment is critical.

Fungal diseases start where life happens. You may have a fungal disease without realizing it. If you have an infection that’s not getting better, despite treatment, talk to your healthcare provider- it could be fungal.
