In FA it says systemic mycoses cannot be transmitted person-to-person, but in sketchy they say they are transmitted via respiratory droplets.
Can someone clarify?

FA p. 135, first paragraph: "Systemic mycoses can form granulomas (like TB) but cannot be transmitted person-to-person (unlike TB)."

Sketchy micro video: Paracoccidiodoimycoses in the Systemic Mycoses category, the pirate is coughing to symbolize "transmitted via respiratory droplets".

medscape (Paracoccidioidomycosis: Practice Essentials, Background, Pathophysiology) says "Animal-to-human and human-to-human transmissions do not appear to occur." some other sources i googled also say this . is there any way you can contact sketchy and ask them to clarify? when i was learning about Systemic mycoses, i remember that people contract them from some kind of contact in nature. i don't remember them being contagious though
