What do you suppose the world would be like if there were cures for all infectious diseases and means to destroy all microbes? What characteristics of microbes will prevent this from happening?

We would surely have a terrible overpopulation.

What is the policy of the usa if you have an infectious disease?
Cusick
lol ok last question i think i got a good topic in my head now. If you do have an infectious disease what is the USA doing to keep it from spreading, let say you found out you had SARS and was still healthy enough to go on a dream trip to France, how do they keep you from going there, or keep them from coming here? If ordered to quarantined next week, and the person does not want to go, can the person still buy a plane ticket and fly? Im gonna try to make my topic the policies of the USA on controlling infectious disease.

The US isn't going to do much unless its a major public health concern (such as your example, SARS). ITs really not common as most people take the advice of health care providers who will tell you not to travel or go out in crowded places. So, its usually the person's choice to quarenteen him or herself. But, if said person proves to not take this advise, then law enforcement may intercede. This happened recently with a case of multi-drug resistant TB:The quarantine order was the first since the government quarantined a patient with smallpox in 1963, according to the CDC.

What makes a good double specialty in medicine infectious disease and?
San Anselmo
I need to know regarding what I want to become. I definetly want to do infectious disease but I want a double specialty and what would go good with infectious disease? I was thinking gastreontology or...?

Unless you are in medical school you should not be too concerned on a specialty yet because you may change your mind. Part of medical school is rotating through different specialties where you will get a feel for the job and can then make an informed decision on a specialty. In order to become an infectious disease specialist you will need to complete an internal medicine residency so you will also be an internist and then will need to complete an ID fellowship. If you wanted to have another specialty you would need to complete another fellowship. That is alot of additional training and it would be impractical because you would not be able to devote enough time to either of those specialties.

How about Cancer? You may wish to brush up a little on your spelling however.
