there's this question that asks about a 12y.o. sickle cell patient with acute osteomyelitis.
the answer choices:
-group B strep
-h. influenza
-m. tuberculosis
-p. aeruginosa
-s. aureus
the answer said p. aeruginosa, which i agree can be present in sickle cell patients, including salmonella...
but isn't staph aureus still going to be the most likely, regardless?
