Abstract

The emerging yeast Candida auris has disseminated worldwide. We report on 7 cases identified in Germany during 2015-2017. In 6 of these cases, C. auris was isolated from patients previously hospitalized abroad. Whole-genome sequencing and epidemiologic analyses revealed that all patients in Germany were infected with different strains.
