*There ARE lots of other bugs that can colonize various parts of the body, almost all of which CAN also cause infection. There is a smallish list of bugs that NEVER colonize and are always believed to be active infectious agent, e.g. Mycobacterium TB, Legionella, Ebola, SARS-2 (i.e. COVID-19).

* Do we need similar instructions or mechanisms as for MRSA for this one? eg coding for [[Resistance to carbapenem antibiotics]]? [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 11:18, 18 February 2025 (CST)

=== No [["set MRSA Colonized" button]] needed ===

* I'm not clear on what you are asking [[User:Lkaita|Lisa Kaita]] 20:57, 10 March 2025 (CDT)

* Not required as it is still not nearly as common as MRSA. The same rule applies for determining if it is an active infection for all of the colonized organisms, this is within the MRSA template localized infection vs colonization.

* Sorry, I meant the [["set MRSA Colonized" button]]~~, and something like [[:Template:ICD10 Guideline MRSA]] for how we code it when it's an actual infection rather than just a colonization. [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 00:51, 11 March 2025 (CDT)~~
