develop resistance to antibiotics, making them less effective in treating the infection. This resistance can occur through genetic mutations or the acquisition of resistance genes from other bacteria through horizontal gene transfer. As a result, common antibiotics may no longer be able to kill the bacteria, leading to treatment failures.

What is bacteria what is the carrier?

a bacterial carrier is usually call this because it carries a significant amount of bacteria. bacteria resides on 99% of everything in this world. something such as a fly, or a rat can at times carry concentrated amounts of harmful bacteria... and sometimes reffered to as bacterial carriers. a person who is sick with some type of bacterial infection could also be considered a bacterial carrier. Although most of the time when someone reffers to something as a bacterial carrier they mean something or someone containing significant amounts of harmful bacteria, it is in my opinion that pretty much anything can carry harmful bacterial at some level; therefore pretty much anything can be a bacterial carrier.
