Abstract
In healthcare settings, future control efforts may need to focus on extending cleaning and disinfection procedures beyond the immediate surroundings of symptomatic carriers. Potential targets to prevent acquisition of C. difficile in the community include household settings, long-term care facilities and outpatient settings, while the role of livestock in entertaining transmission requires further investigation.
