The COVID-19 pandemic in India has catalysed the spread of black fungus or mucormycosis, which can disfigure people even when it is not fatal.
Black Fungus has been categorised as a notified disease in Haryana, making it imperative that government authorities be informed about each case. This will allow in the tracking and management of any outbreak. Doctors in the state are now required to report to the district Chief Medical Officers of any black fungus case detected, Haryana Health Minister Anil Vij said today. "Black Fungus declared Notified Disease in Haryana. Now Doctors will report to CMOs of the District of any Black Fungus case detected," Mr Vij said in a tweet today. "Post Graduate Institute Rohtak Senior Doctors will conduct a video conference with all doctors of the State dealing (with) Corona about its treatment," he said, referring to Rohtak's Pandit Bhagwat Dayal Sharma Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences.More Related News
