In HBO’s new hit series “The Last of Us,” a deadly fungus sweeps the planet turning humans into killer zombies. It’s a zombie apocalypse that’s even more terrifying because “The Last of Us” is inspired by real science. The fungus in the show that turns humans into zombies actually exists. Matt Kasson, an associate professor of mycology, says ants and cicadas can be impacted by a fungus that could turn them into zombies.

always knew it was real
What about that rage alien virus that takes over your very body altering your image into something so inhumane yet recognizable? Twisting and reorganizing your limbs until it's reached its final form.
It's a possibility
You’ve got to give it to naughty dog for creating a brilliant game if not for them we wouldn’t have had this tv series
This is real, the fungus is called cordyceps fungus
Zombies back in 2023
Its all gangsta till some biotech company decides to make it a bio weapon💀💀
With GAIN OF FUNCTION research this is 100% probable.
Always 1% never 0
as an indonesian.. im scared
Another show that I will never watch
Pfizer is probably looking into it
All it takes is 1 mutation
WHAT DO YOU THINK THAT C-V 19 VACCINE WAS FOR???????? 1 DAY THEY GOING TO PUSH A BUTTON N THAT VACCINE WILL ACTIVATE N ALL YOU finna turn into this thing
The fungus is real. However, it's a fungus that attacks insects. If it ever mutates and starts to infect mammals or bigger animals, then yes, it's possible. Very unlikely though.
😂 everything is going to happen because of “climate change” 😂😂😂
I feel sorry for people who believe all this garbage.
Ep 3 i know is great in that ep have so much clicker he is strong zombie i like it
i thought my phone got hacked and sent messages without me knowing with that sound effect when he named ants & cicadas 🤣
“You’re tellin’ me this is really happening?”
maybe in the future some scientists will be crazy enough to genetically engineer and weaponize the Cordycep.
Yes it is!!!!
For non-Purebloods….Yes!!’
That opening scene had me hooked.
Plot twist: The last of us was just preparing us for this upcoming disaster…
Sounds like that people getting the jab might have fungus
Look..out 👆👆👆 for the handle above he got shrooms, LSD, iboga, ketamines, c😇ke, cannabis, psych, meds, DMT trips, acid chocolate 🍫 bars, and he ships!!!!
Uuuhhh this makes my flesh crawl and makes me want to take a shower! 😬😅
Many modern zombies movies already appear to be heavily based upon the rabies virus, so it's probably not the first Zombie movie to use real viruses or pathogens as inspiration.
Time to add Cordyceps cross species apocalypse into my bingo card.
to a game to a movie
It exists in the human realm…it’s called the main stream media
The Government: 🤔💡
It's so sad
No it’s not real it’ll never happen
2 or 1, few years later
Media outlet be like : "should we eat Cordyceps to avoid racism, stop cops from killing people, reduce carbon footprint and avoid climate change,?"
Authored by: someone who is lgbtq/half black/half hispanic/half native american/half asian/lives in twitter and never been to a 3rd world country to really see what is happening. (with a random pronoun you cant even think of)
yea.. duhhh 😌
The demogorgon
It’s coming lol everything they make a show about is because it gonna happen.
let’s spread a bunch of anti-fungals
After many years dumping chemicals and nuclear waste into forest it could be very damn possible for a fungus to mutate like that now days
I don't understand people who like zombie thing or wish it happening, seriously this is terrible and completely disastrous
I wish it won't happen atleast for the next 100 years
I won't say that this is unlikely to happen, because playing with probabilities is the same thing as shooting yourself in the foot. Cordyceps would have little chance of infecting humans, but nobody mentioned the fact that we can make it happen ourselves. All it takes is a dishonest scientist to create the fungus in the laboratory by modifying it so that it can attack humans. Just throw the modified fungus in a mega populated city and see the magic happens.
You do realize people be eating cordyceps as a supplement makes you feel awake like coffee supposed to support neurological health i tried some at the fair….now i craving….braaaains just kidding just kidding *crawls into fetal position and sways with the sun
The fungus is real if humans get infected idk it will thou We will all die by Natural events or something not like this and it's not okay having This kind of Zombie apocalypse it's literally airborne
It’s frozen somewhere
Days gone is better. Come at me
I like how he threw shade at the walking dead
