Black fungus
I was a asymptomatic covid patient , I got positive on 15 April and was in home isolation . I had no meds , no drop in O2 levels and no fever at all .
I got the anti bodies test done on 3 may and it came out to be 17.70
I got my negitive report on 5th May
So after that I started eating my regular food and I drink coldrinks alot so I came back on that too .
So it's 15th May now . How long shall I be worried about black fungus ? And do asymptomatic patients get black fungus ,??

If you aren't diabetic and have not taken steroids and humidified oxygen for prolong periods then you have absolutely nothing to worry about.... Asymptomatic patients have no chance of black fungus
Next Steps
Just relax and focus on nutrition and exercise

Indian media is just glorifying BLACK FUNGUS/ MUCORMYCOSIS. It is not a new disease , it’s been there for a long time now. And it occurs in people whose immunity is very very weak. So don’t worry and stop watching the news.
