Fungus zombies
Variant of Ophiocordyceps that infects hominids. (There's others just for Reptile People and gargoyles of course.)
Those bitten by fungus zombies or exposed to the spores need to roll 3/ST as a health roll (adjusted for Hardy and size as usual for health rolls.)
On the third day following a failed save they're infected with a slight fever. Roll 3/ST as a health roll each day and on a failure lose 1 IQ. (When IQ drops to 5 they will crawl to the highest nearby spot where their skull explodes, scattering spores.)
Whenever an infected is exposed to stress roll 3/IQ or go berserk, with lots of biting.
