Description

Two drug-resistant yeasts are rewriting hospital infection control, Sepinoud Raeisi and colleagues warn in a 2026 review of Candida auris and Candida glabrata. Drawing on surveillance from the CDC, ECDC, WHO, and regional networks, the authors track recent outbreaks, resistance shifts, and control practice across intensive care, neonatal, and long-term care units.

Azole resistance in C. auris already tops eighty percent in some regions, and multidrug patterns now reach the echinocandins too. C. glabrata shows rising dual resistance plus biofilm tolerance. Faster identification through MALDI-TOF, PCR, and genome tracking helps, the authors note, but access lags where resources are thin, leaving stewardship and surveillance as priorities.
