00:00Am I the only one that didn't know a common fungus could become a global health emergency?
00:05Aspergillus isn't just in the soil.
00:07It's moving into our hospitals, homes, and food supply.
00:10Here's what you need to know.
00:12Aspergillus is a fungus that's thriving as our planet warms.
00:16Once limited to warmer climates,
00:18species like A. fumigatus and A. flavus are now spreading into places like North America and Europe,
00:23thanks to rising temperatures and extreme weather.
00:26That means millions more people could soon be exposed.
00:28Why does this matter?
00:31For most, inhaling Aspergillus spores is harmless.
00:35But if you have a weakened immune system or lung issues,
00:37it can cause a deadly infection,
00:39sometimes with up to an 80% fatality rate.
00:43Worse, overuse of fungicides in farming is making these fungi resistant to our strongest medicines.
00:48And it's not just health.
00:50A. flavus contaminates crops with toxins,
00:52threatening food safety and costing billions.
00:55Experts say it's urgent.
00:56We need smarter monitoring, new drugs, and climate action to slow this silent spread.
01:02Stay aware.
01:02This is a global problem we can't ignore.
