The Fungal Frontier: How Fungi Could Trigger A Zombie Pandemic

  • Human bodies are normally too hot for dangerous fungi to survive, creating a natural shield that protects us from infection. However, rising global temperatures are forcing these microscopic organisms to adapt and survive in hotter environments. Our guest this week breaks down the terrifying reality of what could happen if these heat-resistant fungi evolve to conquer our immune systems and trigger a real-world pandemic.

Guest: Dr. Arturo Casadevall, microbiologist, infectious disease expert, Chair of Molecular Microbiology & Immunology, Bloomberg Distinguished Professor, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, author, What If Fungi Win?

Host: Greg Johnson
