Pathogenic bacteria are capable of causing disease in an individual. They may or may not be harmless or beneficial. They can enter the body through the skin, bodily fluids, airborne particles, contact with feces, and touching the surface touched by the infected person. Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Escherichia coli, and Streptococcus pneumonia are some examples of pathogenic bacteria. Infections caused by these bacteria are treated with antibiotics.
