In The Last of Us, the Cordyceps fungus spread through the air via spores and by direct contact with the infected. It turns people into terrifying 'Clickers'—not your typical zombie virus situation!
Through contaminated food supply and human-to-human transmission, Cordyceps went full-post-apocalypse on humanity.
Cordyceps spreads in the game mainly through spore inhalation and getting bitten by the infected. It's like nature turned super villain.
