One famous fungi used to treat infections is Penicillium chrysogenum, from which the antibiotic penicillin is derived. Penicillin was the first antibiotic used in medicine and revolutionized the treatment of bacterial infections. It is still widely used today for various bacterial infections.
No, fungi do not cause influenza. Influenza is a highly contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses, not fungi. Fungi typically cause infections such as athlete's foot, yeast infections, or fungal pneumonia.
Pneumonia
Fungi can negatively impact humans by causing infections such as athlete's foot, ringworm, and fungal nail infections. Certain types of fungi can also produce toxins that can contaminate food, leading to foodborne illnesses. Additionally, mold spores released by certain fungi can trigger allergies and exacerbate respiratory conditions in some individuals.
Fungi can carry and transmit various diseases, including athlete's foot, ringworm, and fungal nail infections in humans. Some fungi also infect crops and plants, causing diseases like powdery mildew and rust. In animals, fungal infections like histoplasmosis and ringworm can be transmitted by fungi.
Some examples of harmful fungi include Aspergillus, which can cause respiratory infections; Candida, which can lead to yeast infections; and Fusarium, which can cause eye infections and skin infections. Additionally, some fungi produce mycotoxins that can contaminate food and lead to food poisoning or other health issues.
Two serious systemic infections caused by fungi are candidiasis and aspergillosis. Candidiasis is caused by Candida species and can affect various organs in the body. Aspergillosis is caused by Aspergillus species and can cause respiratory infections in immunocompromised individuals. Both infections can be life-threatening if not treated promptly.

No, fungi do not cause polio. Polio is caused by the poliovirus, which infects the nervous system. Fungi are a different type of microorganism and are not associated with poliovirus infections.
Bacterial infections: strep throat, urinary tract infections Viral infections: common cold, flu Fungal infections: athlete's foot, yeast infections Parasitic infections: malaria, giardiasis
