Osteomyelitis is ALWAYS (the "boards" fantasy) S.aureus except for Sickle cell = Salmonella or if specifically given other information indicating something else. See rational of Pass program and test writer psychology.
Don't be a "popenjay"
The 90% answer is S. Aureus while Pseudomonas is the most common infecting org in CF!!! Think about it.
