Hi John,

I currently have what appears to be a "fungus free" collection of 14 or so 
lenses and 5 bodies. Is there a possibility that if I introduce the lens and 
body to the rest (interchanging lenses and bodies) that it will spread 
amongst the collection or just within the lens and body the fungus is 
present in?

Cheers,
Neil
