Which statement by a patient with bacterial conjunctivitis indicates a need for further teaching?

Rationale: A. Bacterial conjunctivitis is highly contagious, so monitoring close contacts is appropriate. B. "I will not share towels with my friends or family." Prevents spread of infection. C. "I will wash my hands often during the day.": Frequent handwashing helps prevent transmission. D. "I will remove my contact lenses at bedtime. "Patients with bacterial conjunctivitis should avoid wearing contact lenses entirely until the infection has resolved. Simply removing them at bedtime is not sufficient, so this statement indicates a need for further teaching.
