Bacterial infection

[sonjafoers]

My horse is very poorly today and the vet has taken some bloods and just phoned me to say she has a severe bacterial infection. Can anyone enlighten me as to what this is please and how she would have picked it up? I don't understand the difference between bacterial and viral and how they get these infections.

(Now posted in vet section too)

Bacterial will respond to antibiotics.
