Step 1: Introduction:
Infectious diseases are a major threat to public health, and the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has made it increasingly difficult to treat these diseases. As a result, there is an urgent need for new drugs and antibacterial agents that can effectively combat infectious diseases.
While there are still challenges to overcome, there is hope that new and innovative solutions will emerge in the coming years.

It would be predictable, without drama and relatively simple in so many ways. Since then we’ve been faced with an ever-changing and challenging daily environment.

Our fellow healthcare professionals are stressed beyond words, our hospitals are not prepared for the potential number of patients needing intensive care. At the time of this writing public health experts are expressing grave concern over what they claim is an overall lack of leadership and quick response on the part of government to address this pandemic. Now, politics has become a major factor. So much happening……so much to consider….Please write a reflective essay that discusses future challenges in our healthcare system.
