Clostridium difficile

The Healthcare Commission/Health Protection Agency's enquiry into how NHS trusts are dealing with this is detailed at http://www.healthcarecommission.org.uk/NewsAndEvents/PressReleases/PressReleaseDetail/fs/en?CONTENT_ID=4022047&chk=n0pJM/, and there is guidance about C. diff. on the HPA website at http://www.hpa.org.uk/infections/topics_az/clostridium_difficile/gen_info.htm.

The bug got onto the front page of the Guardian yesterday, and perhaps other places also.
