    The deadly and drug-resistant fungus Candida auris is under
    close surveillance as health experts work to calm its spread.

    Candida auris, also called C. auris, was first identified in
    the U.S. less than 10 years ago. Since then, the number of
    cases have increased every year.

    In 2025, new cases of Candida auris are about on track with
    the same time last year, according to data reported to the
    Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. However, some
    states are seeing far more cases than others.

    . . .

    There is no real 'risk behavior' involved here - the
    fungus and its spores are EVERYWHERE.

    As noted, there are NO good treatments. NO vax.
    Get it and you're in DEEP shit.

    Haven't even heard of any mRNA approaches - and
    that's the most modern fix for weird diseases.

    Fungi are HARDY and spew spores all over the
    place. They are not exactly plants, not exactly
    bacteria or animals. They can survive/grow under
    very adverse conditions.

    Medically - HUGE problem.

    Trump is about to cut, indirectly, money for more
    research by pharmas. His immediate intentions are
    good - lower costs for US citizens. However there
    is also some FALLOUT. So, IMHO, some kind of special
    federal funding for 'dangerous emerging diseases'
    research HAS to be provided. It's an issue for ALL,
    so federal money IS justified. Wouldn't hurt to
    put military researchers on the same job. This
    shit COULD be made into a bio-war weapon even
    without serious genetic mods.

    Oh, and OTHER 'resistant' germs - ALREADY a big prob
    and solutions are coming TOO slow. 'Nature' will
    always try to get ahead of the proverbial curve.
    It's a constant war.

    Just pray the illness away.

    That is the GOP solution.


    Always works ... and when it doesn't then
    it was "gods will". Covered both ways ! :-)




    "God healed me!"

    "Why did He make you sick then?"

    Not one of those made Covid vax or measles vax
    or even penicillin.
    Read up.

    Trump bragged about what he had to do with the vaccines coming out.
    Those letter agencies are the means through which the Executive acts.
    They coordinated information and research, ran all the required
    paperwork and granted all needed approvals.

    Penicillin was discoverred before NIH. NIH at al have funded
    newer antibiotics. I became allergic to penicillin so when I was
    hospitalised for an infection, they had plenty of alternatives.

    I hear he's cut programs from the NIH budget that are responsible for
    inventing anti-lipid drugs that are currently keeping him from having a
    fatal heart attack.

    Too bad he didn't come along sooner.
