With a recent surge in the number of Candida auris infections, the CDC has designated 8/14/17-8/18/17 Fungal Infection Awareness Week. CDC and partners organized this effort to raise awareness of recognizing serious fungal infection early in a patient’s disease process so that timely and life-saving treatment can be provided.
