The resolution designates November of each year as "C. Difficile Awareness Month" in the State of New Jersey to raise awareness about Clostridioides Difficile (C. Difficile), a bacterium that causes significant health issues, including inflammation of the colon. The resolution highlights alarming statistics, such as the 500,000 annual diagnoses of C. Difficile infections in the U.S., with nearly 29,000 deaths occurring within 30 days of diagnosis. It emphasizes the bacterium's status as the most common cause of healthcare-associated infections in hospitals and the substantial financial burden it places on healthcare systems.

To promote awareness and education about C. Difficile, the resolution urges the Governor to issue an annual proclamation recognizing November as C. Difficile Awareness Month. It calls on public officials and citizens to engage in activities and programs that inform the community about the infection, its prevention, and the importance of proper health practices. The resolution aims to enhance understanding of C. Difficile and encourage measures to reduce its spread and impact on public health.
