Two distinct patterns of Clostridium difficile diversity across Europe indicates contrasting routes of spread

Two distinct patterns of Clostridium difficile diversity across Europe indicates contrasting routes of spread

<strong>Background</strong> Rates of Clostridium difficile infection vary widely across Europe, as do prevalent ribotypes. The extent of Europe-wide diversity within each ribotype is however unknown. <strong>Methods</strong> Inpatient diarrhoeal faecal samples submitted on o...
