: The reason the animal remains a carrier is because the organism is not eliminated. It is simply weaked to the point where the symptoms subside. There has been good success in my region using a flush. This concept has saved many Desert Tortoises from certain death. It is my understanding that once the organism has been eliminated from the nose using an antibiotic flush, the infected specimen will no longer be a carrier

Please check this out. Sadly it is incorrect. If only life we that simple.
