Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Pseudomonas are found widely in the environment, such as in soil, water, and plants. They usually do not cause infections in healthy people. The method of transmission is not clear, but there is evidence of a potential airborne route, so yes, there is a chance of transmission.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi
