Oh my, Lost. This is ugly and alarming especially with family member hospitalized going to rehab soon and one in an institutionalized memory care facility.
Thanks for the share -- unreal info.

Candida auris came into the published literature and knowledge in 2009, so relatively recent. It was first reported in the ear canal of a person in Japan.
Which is why it was named "auris," which means "ear" in Latin.
