Dog after transplantation in bed?

Question
Hello,
can our dog sleep in our bed after lung transplantation? Which would be the risk, because fungi, bacteria etc. are already spread all over the appartment as the dog lives there...
Many thanks
Answer
Hello,
we know, that in case of CF patients via pets/animals more seldom germs, also fungi, reach the lung. Therefore I would not recommend that the dog sleeps in your bed, as here the contact time is very long. However, it is not life-threatening, but the risk for seldom infections and possible complications is increased.
Best regards,
