For the issue No.8 of VPRO Gids Magazine - The Netherlands. Candida Auris is a fungus that is particularly resilient in the environment, with a high degree of transmissibility, often causing severe infections, especially in vulnerable individuals. It has unique characteristics that make it particularly concerning: it is not very susceptible to disinfectants, making it highly resistant on surfaces, and it spreads easily in healthcare settings, both through direct contact between individuals and through contact with contaminated medical devices.
