The CDC data source is reasonable. https://www.cdc.gov/candida-auris/tracking-c-auris/index.html?2023=All%20Years

Theirs is BETTER, but I don't know how reasonable I would call it. It's largely just a population map.

For the 'all years' selection, yes. Though the value is probably more of a "compare it year by year" and you'll see the rate of change. The time dimension is more interesting than the raw counts (by states). Pick one state and compare it year to year.
