00:01 Okay, so question 22 is that's a coke observed bacillus and theracus multiplying in the blood of cattle.

00:09 What is this condition called? so if there is bacteria in the blood, this is what's known as bacteremia.

00:19 Okay? 23.

00:22 Which of the following is not a reservoir for infection? a sick person, a healthy person, sick animal, a hospital.

00:28 None of the answers is correct.

00:29 All of these can be reservoirs for infection.

00:32 All of them are reservoirs, right? sick person obviously makes sense, and a sick animal obviously makes sense, but a healthy person can have something known as asymptomatic infection, meaning they have the bacteria, it's multiplying, it's just not causing them to get sick, but they can be spreading it around.

00:53 And then hospital, obviously, it's a smorgas word of diseases, so you can absolutely consider a hospital as a potential reservoir for infection.

01:02 Okay, 24.

01:06 Which of the following contributes to post -operative infections? using a syringe more than once? yep, you can definitely get reinfected.

01:14 Or you can transmit diseases that way.

01:16 Normal microbiota on the operating room staff.

01:18 Absolutely, if they were not sterile, then they can pass that on to you.

01:22 Error is an aseptic technique, yep.

01:25 If the technique is to basically be sterile and you're making errors in that technique, you're not sterile.

01:32 Antibiotic resistance...
