Clostridioides difficile (or C. diff) is the most common
healthcare associated infection.

C. diff causes nearly 500,000 infections every year

C. diff contributes to more than 29,000 deaths annually

While people over 65 are more likely to get a C. diff infection…

…anyone who is taking
antibiotics or has recently been at a healthcare facility is at risk

Yet only 30 percent of Americans have heard of this
dangerous and potentially deadly disease.
