Having a certification that specifies ID as a specialty is not nearly as important as having actual work experience in infection control. Get a masters (MSN) and NP license. Do an internship in hospital epidemiology and infection control. Or get a job in those departments. That will be just as good for leading you to your career goal. Also, having public health certification would be good, too, as PH departments often need nurses experienced in infection control and ID.

You can get the nurse practitioner degree at most any school that offers the master's degree in nursing (that's really what it is, the master's degree). After that, if you don't want to do regular office visit type stuff, it's the specialty training that isn't offered everywhere - I can only find the WA school you must be talking about. Also, since different states have different definitions of what a nurse practitioner is and what they are allowed to do, you probably want to look really closely at those definitions based on where you live and where you want to live and work.

Creationists how come penicillin didn't end infectious disease?
Medford
Penicillin, the first antibiotic, was, at the time, labeled as the "wonder drug."it single-handedly reduced the death rate from diseases such as pneumonia by 1,800%. (statistics come from the comparison of death rates of world war 1 to after the use of penicillin in world war 2)if evolution is as ridiculous as you all say it is, then please explain to me how ~3/5 of all staph infections were penicillin resistant (statistic is derived from a post WWII analysis) in just 6 years after the mass production and mass use of this drug (since, due to the earlier statistic, only ~5.6% or 1/18 before were resistant.) where did the other 55.4% come from?

They forgot to rub Jesus wafers over most of the penicillin supply and so it wasn't as good

This is the basic of the science: organisms can vary within kind or/and devolve. These Scientific facts validates Biblical accounts. Thus, gene pools can become extinct but cannot reappear/evolve. Two gene pools from two different area can recombine & vary within kind to become more viable, but extinct (not separated) gene pools are gone forever. Devolution such as mutation is the opposite of evolution. Devolution is science. Evolution is against science. People got malaria. People with sickle cell anemia do not get malaria. Is sickle cell anemia the result of evolution process? If not, how come the people resist malaria? Think. Think, The answer: sickle cell anemia is not an evolution process. Sickle cell anemia is a devolution (mutation or degenerative) process that causes immunity to malaria. Now think about all those scientific facts and think how penicillin can become ineffective? Is it like malaria?

Because we all know viruses mutate when people talk about evolution as nonsense they are talking about macro evolution, the ones that mention animals and humans evolved from one animal to another, this is only speculation and has not be observed by the human eye.

Many creationists accept that organisms can adapt slightly, yet they can't accept the fact that enough time worth of adaptions can lead to the emergence of new species.
Needham
From what I've read, most of them believe in micro-evolution, the little changes, but not macro, the big changes.
Mount Clemens
Simple adaptation. God made all his creation to be very adaptable. It has nothing to do with evolution.
Wilburton
My fundie sister uses words like micro evolution and adaptation. Aren't they cute?
Castorland
Don't make them say the E word, that is more than they can handle.

Wow, you have totally demolished the straw man you set up. Beautiful, but worthless. Creationists have always believed in the great variety of information held within DNA such that viruses, bacteria, plants and animals can change within their species. The evidence for such change, as you so cleverly note, is obvious to the most casual observer. However, no one has ever produced any significant evidence that one species can change into another species. Consider the 10s of thousands of generations that fruit flies have gone through in the arena of science. All that radiation and the other DNA transforming assaults...and what do we have....fruit flies.... some pretty bizarre fruit flies, but fruit flies.... science has never even made a fruit fly produce a house fly. Game, set, match.
