== Addendum 4/2019 ( https://twitter.com/DrEricStrong/status/1122908045686657024 )==

"The clinda for above the diaphragm; metronidazole for below the diaphragm paradigm isn't as true as it was 6 yrs ago. For example, clinda has fallen a little out of favor for treatment of aspiration pna; and metron out of favor for C.diff colitis."
