Rare Ringworm Case Spread Through Sex in New York City

Dr. Deborah Birx discusses efforts to suppress lab-leak theory, while health officials warn about a rare ringworm case likely spread through sex in New York City. The infection, trichophyton mentagrophytes type VII (TMVII), was detected in a man who traveled to multiple places. Doctors prescribed antifungal medications, but it took four and a half months to clear. Physicians are urged to identify the fungus and address related itchy eruptions.
