Most vulnerable are fragile hospital patients - particularly newborns and the elderly.
It tends to be diagnosed in patients after they've been in hospitals for several weeks.
The fungus can infect wounds, ears and the bloodstream

On Tuesday, state health officials provided new details about the 44 cases in New York.
Aside from one case in Rochester, all were in New York City, at 15 hospitals and a doctor's office.
No site has had more than six cases.

Seventeen New York patients died, but state officials said everyone infected had other illnesses and the fungus was not necessarily the cause of death.

New Jersey has had 15 cases, Illinois, 4, and there's been one case in Indiana, Maryland and Massachusetts, according to the CDC.

Great.

We are already very close to the post-antibiotic era where we can’t cure the diseases we have held at bay since WWII.

And now the fungi are joining the party.

The Fourth Horse is getting ready.

Red-state America wins again by not going to hospitals whose Emergency Rooms look like the third-world version of the Star Wars cantina.
