Over by now: If you are allergic to the mold implicated, then exposure to it can induce asthma. However I don't expect the effect to linger for more than a day or two for most people. If your saxophone is contaminated, you must get it cleaned out with Clorox and be sure to check it out before each use.

Mucormycosis: Mucormycosis is an oportunistic infection. This means that it normally doesn't cause problems in healthy people. Severe illness can occur in people who are immuno compromised/ Immunodeficient (Most common case is a poorly controlled diabetic in ketoacidosis). I agree with cleaning your saxophone.
