Bacterial pathogens in the non-clinical environment

The transmission route used by many bacterial pathogens of clinical importance includes a step outside the host; thereafter refer to as the non-clinical environment. Obvious examples include food-borne and water-borne pathogens and also pathogens that are transmitted by hands or aerosols. In the non...
