insects populations exploding spreading blood borne disease is going to be a way bigger factor that fungus.
but there isn't a TV show/video game about that.
Where are you that insect populations are exploding? All the reports for some time say that populations are declining globally.
The good news there is that we have a 77% effective malaria vaccine and a number of promising candidate Lyme vaccines - it may turn out that a great many insect-borne diseases can be prevented with vaccination once they start affecting people in rich countries.

Hm. It's a start I guess.
There isn't a TV show about that yet.
