Antibiotics are making things worse because they have been overused and used to combat viruses, which doesn't work.  The oversued antibiotics kill off the weaker bacteria, leaving room and food for the stronger, more dangerous bacteria that are more likely to cause grave illnesses or kill people.\n\nThe most important means to control infection is, and always has been, frequent hand washing.

you could make antibiotic/antiviral resistant strains of viruses or bacterea. change the genetics of plants to create more of a certain toxin so you can get a greater yield of toxin per plant. The most efficient way to distribute the toxin would be through the water supply. many places either do not check their water or do not check it well enough.

it's important to maintain a certain concentration level of the antibiotic in order to kill the bacteria if you stop the antibiotic it just won't be able to work the next time you need it cause the bacteria is resistant to it. and a vaccine is usually inactivated virus and when they get into your body your body developes antibodies and when you get an active virus the antibodies will fight it

Unlike bacteria that multiply in the correct conditions of their own volition, viruses have to invade a cell and change it to spread.  They can't just be, they have to take something over.

Globally, public health agencies have implemented policies to help prevent and control typhoid.  These include improved sanitation, safe drinking water, and good medical care.  In some communities those goals are too lofty and some believe that vaccination for high risk populations is the best way.  There are currently two vaccines in common use.\n\nTo better understand prevention, you need to study the disease itself.  Typhoid is caused by a virulent and invasive bacterium called Salmonella typhi.  This bacteria spreads through contaminated food or water and occasionally through direct contact with someone that is already infected.  In developing countries, the cause is generally poor santitation and contaminated drinking water.  Industrialized countries usually see typhoid when a traveler brings it back from a trip and then spreads it to others via the fecal-oral route.\n\nTo personally protect yourself from typhoid you can avoid traveling to areas that are endemic to the disease.  If you do travel, consider taking the vaccine.  While the vaccine is useful, it isn't 100% so it is advised that you wash your hands frequently, avoid untreated water (drink bottled or canned water, carbonated water is best, wipe all bottles and cans before using, no ice, bottled water when brushing teeth, etc.), avoid raw fruits and vegetables, choose cooked foods.

1) Aspirin\n\n2)Penicillin\n\n3)Small Pox Vaccine\n\n4)Viagra - just kidding\n\n5)Hand Washing\n\nThe greatest I suspect is small pox vaccine.  The reason that I say that is prevention is better than a cure.  Remember the saying:  An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

The best way to protect yourself in any situation like this is to avoid maximum contact with people, but at the same time maintain a good level of fitness and eat healthy.  Washing your hands frequently is also highly advisable.

I'm not sure what the question is? Are you looking for someone to write an entire grant proposal and post it here? I'm not sure if such a grant would be funded, because the means of preventing culture contamination are pretty well known: Work in a sterile environment (tissue culture hood). Spray everything with ethanol before you put it in the hood. Use disposable pipets, etc.

Antibiotics - Can kill the good bacteria allowing yeast to take over.  If your taking antibiotics eating yogurt can help.  \nClothing - Always wear lose fitting cotton underwear.\nChemicals - Douches and even some perfumed toilet papers are irritants.\nDiet - Some people feel that cutting down on foods that contain yeast helps lessen the intensity or frequency of yeast infections.  People with uncontrolled diabetes are more prone to infection. \nSexual Transmission - Yeast infections can be transmitted between people by direct contact.  \nHormones - Pregnant women are particularly prone to yeast infections. Many women taking contraceptive pills experience regular yeast infections as their hormone levels fluctuate.\nYeast infections are treated with antifungal drugs, such as clotrimazole or miconazole. There are creams and tablets used in the vagina, skin ointments, and pills. \n\nAntifungal drugs usually work well to treat a vaginal yeast infection. But infections that do not respond to treatment are becoming more common. Taking antifungal drugs when they are not needed can help make yeast resistant to the drugs. For this reason, you should not use antifungal drugs unless you are sure that you have a yeast infection. \n\nIf you are sure that you have a yeast infection, you can buy over-the-counter products to treat the infection. Be sure to follow the directions for using the product. If you are not sure whether you have a yeast infection or another type of infection or problem, you should see your health care provider. You should also see your health care provider if you have recurring yeast infections.
