OOOOOP
All of the following are true about gas gangrene EXCEPT:
Caused by the anaerobic bacterium Clostridium perfringens
The etiologic agent stays confined to the site of initial infection and does not damage or invade other tissues
Infection is caused by endospores from the soil or other environmental sources
Begins with interruption of blood supply to tissue, causing cell death
The etiologic agent ferments carbohydrates, producing CO2 and H2
