Candidemia rates and census tract social vulnerability index—Colorado, 2021–2022
In Colorado census tracts from 2021 to 2022, there was a 15% increase in the rate of candidemia for every 0.1 unit increase in social vulnerability index (SVI) (RR 1.15, 95% CI, 1.10, 1.20). Geographic social determinants of health included in SVI may be risk factors for candidemia.
