      <description><![CDATA[C. difficile sounds really scary. I did not know C. Difficile acquisition is 50% in individuals with hospital stays up to or longer than 4 weeks. That is tough given how bad it can be for healh, as you explain. The diarrhea and high reoccurance sounds really tough to deal with. It is good that there are targetted treatments that are available. As you mention the probiotic route sounds very useful, to be available. And I know or at leas have heard that this is one of those cases where the transplant of poop can save lives. I hope more treatment for it is available in the future]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Ugh! Tis' the life of an oppuritunistic pathogen. Staph is universal. It is present on the skin of about a third of us, if I am recalling the stat correctly. Unfortunately staph does have a tendancy to accquire antibiotic resistance in certain environments and, as you mention, when host health is compromised, staph can turn deadly. C. Diff infection is horrible my grandfather experienced it after recovering from a surgery, despite being in good health and it nearly knocked the life out of him (though he survived!) I appreciate your handy articles that spread awareness, such as this one.]]></description>
