I need help answering this question to my professor: The topic for the discussion was this one: Some potentially pathogenic bacteria and fungi, including strains of Enterococcus, Staphylococcus, Candida, and Aspergillus, can survive for one to three months on a variety of materials found in hospitals, including scrub suits, lab coats, plastic aprons, and computer keyboards. What can hospital personnel do to reduce the spread of these pathogens? My answer was this one: To reduce the spread of these pathogens an infection control protocol should be followed. Some ways in which this could be reduced is by using desinfectants, sterilization, hand washing, and disposing techniques. In addition, I currently work as a dental assistant at Jackson Main and the protocol we use is hand washing our hands for at least 20 seconds before and after seeing every patient. We use CaviWipes to disinfect every surface and autoclave every single instrument after every use. Also, we make sure to…

Choose the false statement: O A contaminated catheter might be an example of an iatrogenic infection. The size of an inoculum introduced into the host has little to do with the success or pathology of an infection. O A zoonosis is an infectious disease or pathogen that has crossed over from an animal species and begun to infect humans. O Vertical infections are those transferred from mother to child either during birth or via breastfeeding. Question 21 Choose the false statement below. O Long term consequences to a host that have been caused by infectious disease (such as heart disease after septicemia) are termed sequelae. OPortal of exit" refers to the way in which the immune system destroys an infection, or how antibiotics can be used to kill invading bacteria. O Whether or not a person is a susceptible host for disease is determined in part by where that person lives and how that person is employed.
