A drug-resistant fungus, Candida auris, is spreading in UK hospitals, causing severe infections and prompting a health alert.
A drug-resistant fungal infection caused by Candida auris is spreading in hospitals across England, prompting a health alert from the UK Health Security Agency.
First identified in 2009 in Japan, C. auris can cause severe, life-threatening infections in hospitalized patients, especially those with weakened immune systems.
It spreads through contact with infected individuals or contaminated surfaces and is resistant to common antifungals.
The pathogen has now been found in over 40 countries and can persist in healthcare settings for years, requiring strict infection control measures to contain its spread.
