In the paragraph preceding this quote Lawrence speaks of "mild
mucocutaneous infection" associated with thrush and mastitis and diaper
rash so I think when she states invasive candidal infection occurs
infrequently she is discussing something other than the
mouth/bottom/breast entities we are all so aware of.  As bad as
mouth/bottom/breast candidal infections are INVASIVE candidal infections
are much worse and at times life threatening.  Thankfully they are rare.
