We're still far away from last of us territory because cordyceps targets ants, and we're a bit different. It's a huge issue for hospitals though. If a hospital was to become infected with a deadly fungus, best course of action is probably to burn it down. Seriously though, the fumigation needed would completely close the hospital for a while.
