Just talked to Jeanne and guess what?
She's contracted CDiff, they think.🤬
Now I don't know when she will be released 😵💫

Honestly what the ever living fuck it’s mad to me that they would do that???? But I’m very spoilt my hospital has private rooms.
But still, cdiff is treated seriously, we have to gown up every time we enter the room! It’s virulent as fuck!

We voted today. Even my brother who has CDiff (worse than sepsis and MRSA) went to vote with us. We had to help him walk in & out and we had to stop twice so he coulf throw up.
We will not let that orange pedophile sack of pus stay in office.

Currently at the hospital and I learned now that all my stomach problems are linked to Cdiff and I am getting out on antibiotics,anything to fix my stomach this hasn't been a fun few weeks

Professional cleaning at a hospital is wild because sometimes you work with a chemical that kills cdiff or something, and then you read the label and it says "if you inhale this or get it on your skin it'll knock your cock off"

On to #cdiff, and it looks like the increase in incidence of recent years may have changed. Hopefully, this will continue into next year too.

Our results demonstrate that a combinatorial immune-microbiota-based approach can treat infections. This is just the trailer, stay tuned for the final show!! Real team effort, I am grateful to all people involved in this study @upenn.edu #Immunotherapy #Microbiome #MicrobiotaBasedTherapy #Cdiff
Our latest preprint shows immunotherapy can reduce intestinal inflammation and promote Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) mediated clearance of C. difficile infection in mice. We determined key immune regulatory pathways critical for FMT engraftment.

Yeah. It's like a thin coat of slime shame needs to be removed after hearing them speak. Like they're spewing Cdiff poop everywhere

Nothing makes you want to avoid antibiotics at all costs more than being very susceptible to Cdiff.🥴

It’s definitely a rollercoaster! Getting used to the meds, I picked up a couple of hospital related viruses. Infections are the best of which was cdiff🤦♀️ what a nightmare when you’re immuno compromised the last place you want to be is in the hospital. I hope your friend is doing better now.

I completely agree. I had the same doubts with the farmers market 😞 several years ago I became seriously ill with cdiff and science saved me. I feel like we won't make it 2 more years let alone thru the rest of the year. I recently broke my hand and lost my health insurance.fun times getting insured

Who the fuck let in the guy slinging shit sandwiches? Kick him the fuck out before we all get ecoli and cdiff.
Oh so, let’s see you ask for a BLT and there is no mayo , the alternative is a shit sandwich . Hmm do I go without mayo hoping maybe someone will show up with jar or , get angry and ensure everyone eats the shit sandwich on rye ?

I generally agree with you. But personally when it comes to choosing stewardship battles to fight, I have generally given up on this one. Not clear to me that PTZ is actually more harmful in anyway (may have lower CDiff risk than CRO) and AMR is so complicated in how it occurs

It's a wrap! #ICDS2026 has come to an end. As usual, flawless execution, great crowd. There will be another ICDS in two years - but not organised by Maja Rupnik anymore. Lots of respect and appreciation for what she has done over the past decades for the #cdiff community.
