C Diff by State

Postby stefdub » Fri Oct 05, 2007 8:16 am

Are there any states where more c diff cases have been reported, basically "c diff danger zones"?

It would just be interesting to see if more c diff bacteria seems to be found in certain areas than in others. I guess due to traveling it can be everywhere but I was just wondering.

I live in South Carolina.

CDC C-diff tracking maps for the new virulent strain NAP1:

So far Ohio is the only state where C-diff is a reportable infectious disease.
