These organisms are normal fecal flora and are present in soil and water. They are often present in superficial wounds, draining ears, and sputum, particularly in patients whose normal flora has been eradicated by antibiotic therapy. [merckmanuals.com]

Prognosis
Thus, products secreted by multiple bacterial species in the milieu of the catheterized urinary tract can directly impact prognosis. Footnotes The authors have declared that no conflict of interest exists. [biorxiv.org]
What is the prognosis for Morgellons disease? Unfortunately, the prognosis for this disorder is difficult because of the lack of clarity regarding its symptoms, diagnosis, and potential causes. Editor's addendum: According to the U.S. [medicinenet.com]
Prognosis The prognosis depends on the type of infection and the particular host. Data suggest that inappropriate antimicrobials (ones that an organism is resistant to) are associated with a worse outcome. Tucci V, Isenberg HD. [emedicine.medscape.com]
