Actually what I had is correct. From the source it says:
"Aspergillus spp. molds seem able to survive this temperature. Perhaps it is prudent to recommend laundering all socks (previously washed and unwashed) at 60ºC after treatment of onychomycosis. Fungi are hardy creatures, and socks previously washed at ecologically trendy low temperatures may retain fungal spores waiting to sprout and infect a moist foot or nail. "
Thanks for the close reading though. Made me go back and check the source.
