The Last of Us' HBO Max series won't be handling infection in the same way as the games, as explained by one of its creators.
‘ universe, people are infected by the cordyceps fungus by inhaling airborne spores. However, that won’t be the case in the HBO Max series, as the infection will spread through another way: tendrils.Collider
“Eventually, those conversations [about not using gas masks] led us to these tendrils,” said Druckmann. “And then, just thinking about how there’s a passage that happens from one infected to another, and like fungus does, it could become a network that is interconnected. It became very scary to think that they’re all working against us in this unified way, which was a concept that I really liked, that got developed in the show.
