In order to survive and multiply, a successful pathogen must accomplish five tasks. Name them.
C. difficile infections are difficult to eradicate because the bacteria exist in two forms: a repli- cating, toxin-producing form and a spore form that is resis- tant to antibiotics. Fecal microbiota transplantation-the transfer of normal gut microbiota from a healthy individ- ual-can resolve >90% of recurrent infections, a much bet- ter cure rate than further antibiotic treatment alone. Why do you suppose microbiota transplantation is so effective?
