Abstract

Since C. auris was first detected in South Africa in 2009, health care-associated transmission events and large outbreaks have led to this pathogen accounting for more than 1 in 10 cases of candidemia. A large proportion of South African C. auris isolates are highly resistant to fluconazole but variably resistant to amphotericin B and echinocandins.
