Why was supportive care alone used to treat Grace (the patient in Clinical Case, Chapter 23), whose Ebola infection also caused symptoms of fever and bloody diarrhea, but not Tayvian?

-The C. difficile bacteria could be "crowded out" and eliminated by the transplant procedure, that is, re-introducing healthy bacterial flora into Tayvian's colon; this option was not available to Grace. -Supportive care would probably not be sufficient to get rid of the toxin-producing bacteria in Tayvian's colon. -Grace did not have other treatment options besides supportive care.
