摘要：
We surveyed members of the Emerging Infections Network about Candida auris screening practices at US healthcare facilities. Only 37% of respondents reported conducting screening; among these, 75% reported detection of at least 1 C. auris case in the last year. Increased screening could improve C. auris detection and prevent spread.
