He said that the low immunity of Covid patients gives the fungus an opportunity to grow. Raised blood sugar levels provide an ideal environment for establishment and fast growth of this fungus, which quickly spreads to the nose, face, eyes and brain. Therefore, it is of utmost importance for diabetic patients suffering from Covid-19 to keep their blood sugar strictly under check. Those who survive this fungal infection are losing their teeth, jaws, eyes and many facial bones, Dr Duggal warned.
Mucormycosis is an invasive fungal infection caused by fungi of the order, Mucorales. Those who are immunologically and metabolically compromised usually fall prey to this opportunistic black fungus which destroys the facial bones, invades eyes and brain and is frequently fatal.

I always try to make sure my column has a point to it. I want to share a life lesson and encourage readers to live an optimistic and positive life. As for this column, I really don’t know what the point is, other than I’m missing my mom and dad now … and decided to write about them.
I hope you’ll allow me just this once. May I?
My dad grew up in the coal mining area of deep southern Illinois. If you asked my dad what nationality we were, he’d usually laugh, then respond, “hillbilly.” My mom was from Sands Springs, Oklahoma. When asked the same question, Mom would say, “Okie.”
