I would check the fungus for any bugs! Especially being on the backs of the leaves, it looks like mealy bugs! If it is fungus, use a mix of baking soda, neem oil, and gentle dish soap with water and spray it on

Mealy bugs

Mealy bugs for sure! Give it a good bath with room temp water, and spray with any plant bug spray, separate from other plants until clear for awhile!
