US states hardest hit by the deadly fungus Candida auris have been revealed in a DailyMail.com interactive map.
It shows how the microscopic yeast strain, also known as C auris, has been detected in over half of American states since first emerging in the US in 2016.
The highest counts are in the country’s major coastal cities. New York state is the worst hit, with 1,325 cases since 2016, followed by Illinois with 1,044 cases, and California with 813 cases.
Next up is Florida which has recorded 683 cases, New Jersey (419) and Nevada (408), based on data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention between 2013 and 2022.
It comes after health officials issued a warning about C auris on Monday, flagging that the hospital infection had tripled in recent years and grown resistant to multiple drugs.
