What resistant forms of bacteria are produced by gram positive bacilli of the most dangerous disease bacteria?
Your question is not clear. Do you mean do some Gram + bacilli produce resistant forms. If so, you are thinking of those bacteria that produce endospores. They form these when the environment becomes hash and unlivable for them. Most studies have been with Bacillus subtilitus and Clostridium. These four Clostridium have clinical interest because of the diseases they cause: C. botulinum, C. difficile, C. perfringens and C. tetani.B. subtilitus is not really a pathogen but is now considered a normal gut bacteria.
Why are viral infections more difficult to treat than bacterial infections?
That is a difficult one. It depends on the virus and the bacteria. Most viruses cause self-limiting diseases, that are treated with supportive measurements. Other viruses, such as Influenza, Cytomegalovirus and Herpes, and HIV, can be treated with specific drugs. There are different drugs that treat different types of bacteria, with more or less success. But remember that viruses and bacteria are live organisms, and they can and do develop resistance to the drugs that kill them. Even more, bacteria can even pass on the learned resistance to other bacteria.

What are the causes of cidiff how can you treat this?
When people say "C. diff" (pronounced "see diff"), they mean an infection by the Clostridium difficile bacterium. Many people carry this bacterium in their GI tract normally. However, if these people take antibiotics, C. difficile can tough it out while other bacteria are killed. A bit later, C. difficile can overgrow and become a real problem. Clindamycin is the antibiotic that is most associated with C. difficile infection, but almost any antibiotic can trigger it, including penicillins. Rarely, C. difficile infection can occur without antibiotic use. Staying in a hospital increases one's risk of developing C. difficile infection. Treatment of C. difficile involves discontinuing the previous antibiotic and giving specific antibiotics that kill C. difficile. Antibiotics effective against C. difficile include vancomycin (taken orally) and metronidazole. Hope that helped!
