Is pink eye contagious?

Acute bacterial conjunctivitis

is an infectious disease caused by bacteria such as pneumococcus, Staphylococcus aureus and Haemophilus influenzae. Most of them are mainly contact infection, which can be transmitted through hand-eye contact and other ways. For example, when healthy people come into contact with hands or pollutants carrying pathogenic bacteria such as pneumococcus and Staphylococcus aureus, if they do not clean their hands, they can rub their eyes directly with contaminated hands, which can lead to pathogen invasion and infection, so acute bacterial conjunctivitis is usually transmitted.
