    It looks like they were going for cellular scale, which would explain the absence of icosahedral shapes as viruses would be way too small at this scale. However, some parts look like colonies rather than cells.

    Most cells would not be this colorful unless stained or grown on media that colors them.

    Hard to say what specifically they were trying to portray. MRSA and Strep look represented, still looking for Candida auris. Maybe some cyanobacteria?

    To tell friend from foe would require more than looking at them–DNA sequencing, drug resistance assay, etc.
