UK Enriched With New And Interesting STD

From The Sun: "Drug-resistant 'super fungus' that attacks groin and bum spreads through UK and can be transmitted by sex." The article relates that "[c]ases of trichophyton indotineae - which triggers unsightly, stubborn skin lesions all over the body - are now rocketing in the UK, despite being virtually unknown just a few years ago." Why would the UK suddenly be afflicted by this disease? 

    While most cases have been concentrated in Asia for now, Professor Darius Armstrong-James, a fungal specialist at Imperial College London, said patients were now arriving with the condition at British hospitals.

    He told The Sun: "It's becoming a really big problem in the UK. We don't know how endemic, or pandemic, it will get here, but already, the growing frequency of new cases coming into hospitals is very concerning."

    He said instances of trichophyton indotineae have skyrocketed by nearly 500% in the past three years, with the condition seldom diagnosed before this period.   

I'm sure this is completely unrelated, but I would note that "Indian was the most common nationality of people migrating to the UK since 2005, and Indians accounted for a quarter of all non-EU arrivals since 2021." And "Nigerian and Pakistani have only climbed to the top five nationalities since 2021, in both cases as a result of increased grants of study and work visas."
