SAVANNAH, Ga. —
A fungus, Candida Auris, is further drawing attention from health care professionals across the nation due to its rapid spread and resistance to treatment. The drug-resistant fungus, first identified in 2016, has doubled its prevalence in the U.S. each year since its discovery.
“We’ve had four people at one time on and off, over the past few months, and in years past, it was unusual to have one or even two people with Candida Auris in our hospital,” said Dr. Timothy Connelly at Memorial Health in Savannah.
“The fungus will just keep getting bigger and bigger, obstruct certain parts of the lungs, and can cause secondary pneumonia. Eventually, it can go on to kill people,” Connelly said.
