The objective of this question is to understand the distribution of infectious pathogens, using information from three different scientific articles. Infectious pathogens, which include bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, can be distributed in a variety of ways, including through direct contact, airborne transmission, and vector-borne transmission.

Read the following two statements about C.difficile outbreaks and answer the questions given below. “Between December 2007 and May 2008 there was a C.difficile outbreak in a UK hospital, where 55 patients were infected and there were 28 mortalities.” “A relatively recent survey discovered that 41% of all reported C.difficile cases were not hospital based infections, but originated in the local community.” Two patients were admitted to the same hospital ward for the same duration of time, yet one became ill with C.difficile and the other didn’t. Relating to the host-pathogen relationship, explain how they had different outcomes.
