摘要：
Healthcare facility-onset Clostridioides difficile infection rates substantially dropped in a Mexican hospital after its conversion to a full COVID-19 setting, despite heavy contamination of the environment the previous year. Better adherence to hand hygiene and contact precautions may help explain this finding. (c) 2020 Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, Inc. Published by Elsevier Inc.
