Stool samples, Australian style

When I was in the hospital last week for recurring gall issues, I provided a stool sample to check for C. difficile.
Stool samples are the cornerstone of foodborne illness outbreak investigation.
This is what Chapman pooped in to about 8 years ago in Kansas.
Campylobacter and didn’t just hate my cooking.
I was curious about the Australian way, and followed the nurse around.
And took pictures.
