Aurangabad: Sixteen people have died of mucormycosis and 201 have caught the infection in Aurangabad city during the second Covid wave this year, data with the civic body reveals.

A majority of those who caught mucormycosis, also known as the black fungus infection, are diabetic, the data shows. The number of casualties and infections could rise further as the process of compiling data is still on.

Dr Neeta Padalkar, health officer with Aurangabad Municipal Corporation (AMC), on Sunday said a core committee of experts has been formed to deal with the challenge of mucormycosis among Covid patients. “The panel involves ENT specialists, dentists and ophthalmologist from both state-run and private hospitals. These experts will provide guidance about treatment of mucormycosis in critical cases,” she said.

Padalkar said the use of steroids in Covid patients with diabetes is found to be a leading cause for developing mucormycosis. “We also expect special guidelines from the state government on the treatment protocol of Covid patients with diabetes. A separate treatment protocol for mucormycosis patients is also expected,” she said.
