Answer: a drug-resistant bacteria

Explanation: in the passage, we can read that:

"Campylobacter is estimated to cause approximately 1.3 million infections, 13,000 hospitalizations, and 120 deaths each year in the United States. "

from this, we can expect that the campylobacter is some form of bacteria or virus.

" The CDC is seeing resistance to ciprofloxacin in almost 25 percent of campylobacter tested and resistance to azithromycin in about 2 percent. "

And here we can see that the campylobacter shows resistance to some drugs.

Then the option that makes sense is:

2) a drug-resistant bacteria
