| dc.description.abstract | While many Healthcare Associated Infection (HAI) rates increased during the pandemic, inpatient C. difficile infection (CDI) rates declined. We compared pre-pandemic (2018-2019) to interpandemic (2020-2021) data, using Maryland’s population-based surveillance data collected through the Emerging Infections Program’s CDI HAIC project, to quantify the impact of COVID-19 on decreases in CDI within different epidemiologic classes (epi classes): HCFO, CO-HCFA, CA (Tables 1 & 2). | |
