Molecular Epidemiology of Candida Auris Outbreak in a Major Secondary-Care Hospital in Kuwait

The emerging, often multidrug-resistant Candida auris is increasingly being associated with outbreaks in healthcare facilities. Here we describe the molecular epidemiology of a C. auris outbreak during 18 months, which started in 2018 in the high dependency unit (HDU) of a secondary-care hospital in...
