Deadly fungus may not survive the way of The Last of Us

Original: A deadly fungus may not live to see the last of us

New research suggests a deadly fungus, the kind popularised as a pandemic threat in the drama The Last of Us, may be more vulnerable than feared. Coverage on science outlets including EurekAlert! and Medical Xpress reports findings indicating the fungus could face limits or threats to its own survival, tempering fears of a real-world fungal apocalypse.

Why now: Fresh research findings tie into ongoing public fascination with fungal pandemics stoked by The Last of Us.
