A fungal epidemic is not only frightening but also probable. It warns that the world is full of invisible threats that might endanger mankind. The Last of Us’ plot emphasises how humanity’s existence is constantly in jeopardy, and how we must always be prepared for the worst-case scenario. The capacity of the programme to merge fiction with actuality makes the plot more immersive and thought-provoking. The series is a must-see for aficionados of post-apocalyptic dramas, and it serves as a sharp warning about the dangers that may lie in the shadows.
