DRWould you wish C diff on your worst enemy?
Clostridium difficile (aka C. diff) is a gram positive, spore forming bacteria that causes this nightmarish, insanely foul smelling, and very contagious diarrhea. It pretty much lives rent free in the amygdala (fear center) of all healthcare workers’ minds around the globe! For those of you unfortunate enough to get up close and personal with C diff, describe its characteristic smell to help others identify this super contaguous condition that, fortunately, is treatable with antibiotics 😅
