Well, it's the usual sensationalist reporting by the Daily Mail (you do
need to
take that paper with a fairly large helping of salt), but in
essence, yes it is
true. These two fungi appeared a few years ago (not
clear if they're imports or
two genuinely novel diseases, possibly as a
result of mutation, but either way,
they're nasty). The UK government
has announced extra money to combat them
(http://tinyurl.com/nn8opq .
They are reportable diseases (which means they
should be reported to
the Ministry for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries), but of
course, most
ordinary people probably wouldn't spot them.
