Candida auris (Fraser Health) [English] Permalink Public
Candida auris (or C. auris, say can-dee-da ow-ris) is a type of multi-drug resistant fungus. It was discovered in 2009 and has quickly spread to many countries. The medicines commonly used to treat other Candida infections often don’t work for this type of Candida (multi-drug resistant). It can cause serious infections that are difficult to treat. The factsheet describes the risks and actions to take to prevent the spread. (English) Colour
