A member asked:

I think i was exposed to candida auris, how long would it take for symptoms of an infection to show up?

Dr. Hunter Handsfield answered

Specializes in Infectious Disease

Exposed in what manner? How do you know? If you have a normal immune system -- that is, if you are outwardly healthy with no serious health problems -- there is almost no chance you'll have a problem with C. auris. Serious infections are almost entirely limited to people with serious underlying health problems or immune deficiency.
