Could a human bacteria infection affect a bearded dragon?

So I just found out that my sister has had a bacteria infection on her skin for about three weeks. She went to the doctor and was told that it can be transferred to members of the household but not your dogs. I’ve obviously handled my beardie and I was unaware that I may possible have it now too. She’s fed and handled my bearded dragon before as well. I’m not sure if the same applies to beardies as it would with dogs but is it possible he can get it from me or my sister?
Sorry if this post is ridiculous he’s my first reptile so I’m new at this and I’d rather know now Incase I have to take him to the vet then it suddenly happening to him.
He seems fine a little lighter in some spots then usual but I think he’s about to shed again. He still eats as well I’ve upped his cricket size so he’s eating less of them now but that’s just because they’re bigger and his poop is solid as well he does have some orange to it but that’s from carrots and I always give him calcium

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
