I don’t believe C. Diff. is a superbug in the traditional use of the word. As far as I know, it’s still not resistant to Flagyl or Vanco. It’s nothing new; it’s been around forever, but we’re just now hearing more about it.

Maybe Neverdem can clarify this for me....

If it's still sensitive to Flagyl and Vancomycin, it's normal C. Difficile.
