It said on the name Pneumonia from fungal infection.
Disease: Fungal Pneumonia
Agent,Organism : Fungus , Fungal space

Mechanic game effect : divide in 3 stage and slowly develope stage

Note more detail: This disease for me look balance
because normally space fungal can found in maintenance randomly and in hydroponic.which normally involve science and botanist or who ever stay in maintenance can accident get disease.
Janitor become major role in prevent it.by cleaning wall.
The disease become tricky to new doctor or who just use normal health analysis. Because when it show just tox damage they might just use only charcoal which is not treat the diseases.people will have chance to unnoticed it and untreated disease can potentially make pandemic.
Good doctor can recognize it but ask some symptom and use upgrade health analyses.
And last but not least make people interact with item no one use. Medical mask.
