THE PATHWAY TOWARDS INFECTIOUS DISEASE?
 
That hurt my head to read. I still don't completely understand what you are asking, but here is some info. There is a specialty within pharmacy for infectious disease. The route is to do a two-year residency after pharmacy school. Here's an article from Student Pharmacist with a good overview of the profession. Article You might also find more info on the APhA website at www.pharmacist.com Whether you go the PharmD or MD route is up to you to decide what aspects you want to focus on.

THE PATHWAY TOWARDS INFECTIOUS DISEASE?

I could not decipher your post either but I will try to help.

I would try to research what an infectious disease specialist MD does versus an infectious disease pharmacist (aside from the obvious basic differences).

This question may be better suited for the pharmacy or medical forum where actual people in the profession can help direct you in the right direction. After you research the differences maybe you can make a more educated decision about what to pursue.

I suggest an English class before you even begin thinking about applying for ANY professional school.
 
HAHAHA FUNNY AREN'T YOU!!... YEAH WITH A 4.0 GPA.... yes last advice i need is from you.... yeah thanks for your help
 
thanks to other who tried to assist me .... except Carboxide.... who seems to be lacking air to breath... ENJOY YOUR DAY... thanks to other for your help
 
We're trying to help but no one understands your questions.

WTF are you talking about?

1. Work at the CDC,
2. Become a pathologist
3. Research
4. Pharmaceutical company
5. Pharmacist w/ residency in ID
6. Be an MD, do a residency, then fellowship in ID.

Maybe this gets at your question?

I hope that in your head, it doesn't sound the way it looks to us when you typed it out...that must be painful

Using text speak in a pre-professional forum also tends to make things a little more confusing for people used to typing in complete sentences, though that is fading with the texting generation.

In terms of your question perhaps a reformat would make things easier.
It seems you want to know what variables to consider when deciding between pharmacy and MD:
i dk what to do or what to look at.... pay is one thing
If ID pharmacy would have anything to do with immuno/virology
wanting to purse something with immno,viro and etc.... what to go to pharm
If ID pharmacy would have more to do with immuno/virology than ID MD
explain what is probability oh pharm and immno/viro going hand to hand vs. infectious disease MD
and which would provide the greatest benefit (not sure if you mean to you or society??)
OVERALL benefit

How close is this to what you intended?
