About Pseudomonas aeruginosa
According to the CDC, Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen, usually causing infections in people in the hospital and/or with weakened immune systems. Pseudomonas infection in this population can result in septicemia and pneumonia. The CDC reports that Pseudomonas aeruginosa can also infect healthy individuals, “…healthy people can also develop mild illnesses with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, especially after exposure to water. Ear infections, especially in children, and more generalized skin rashes may occur after exposure to inadequately chlorinated hot tubs or swimming pools. Eye infections have occasionally been reported in persons using extended-wear contact lenses.”
