Hi Everyone, Great job on the Forum last week! I really enjoyed watching your comments, and your interactions with each other.....just what I was hoping for! Keep up the excellent work! For this week our discussion centers around "common" bacteria. Here are a few questions to discuss while you're learning about these so-called "common" bacteria. If they are so common, why do they cause so many problems?How do these "common bacteria" cause disease, anyway? Why do they cause disease in SOME people and not in others? How can you keep from becoming infected with these common bacteria; aren't they present everywhere? What actually determines whether or not they'll turn from "common" into deadly? What are some of your "favorite" common bacteria and why? What did you find particularly interesting about them?
