Abstract

It was only 10 years ago that the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) predicted the emergence of new fungal pathogens as a growing public health problem. 1 In parallel, while assessing global threats, the importance of mycology in public health has been predominantly ignored in several parts of the world. 2 For example the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control has no mycology experts in the team and WHO's global antimicrobial resistance surveillance system has only very recently considered emergence of resistance among fungal pathogens.
