Illinois sees declining Candida auris cases, but remains a hotspot, with 489 cases in 2025.
The CDC reports Illinois remains a major hotspot for Candida auris, a drug-resistant yeast causing severe infections in healthcare settings.
In 2025, the state recorded 489 cases, down from 596 in 2024, with no new cases in the past week.
The fungus, which survives on surfaces and spreads easily, primarily threatens older adults and immunocompromised patients.
Though healthy individuals are rarely at risk, they can unknowingly transmit it.
The infection has now been confirmed in at least 28 states, prompting ongoing public health efforts to strengthen infection control measures.
