The first two cases of a highly contagious fungal infection have been discovered in the United States, according to the Daily Mail.
The US Center for Disaster Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed that two female patients, ages 28 and 47, had lesions on their necks, abdomens, stomachs and thighs.
Authorities said other cases are also under surveillance.
This infection is very resistant to drugs and this is what worries specialists.
The Trichophyton fungus had also reached the epidemic stage in South Asia.
Experts believe that these fungal infections are becoming more common due to climate change.
