Medicine is the art and science of healing. It encompasses a range of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness.

Contemporary medicine applies health science, biomedical research, and medical technology to diagnose and treat injury and disease, typically through medication, surgery, or some other form of therapy. The word medicine is derived from the Latin ars medicina, meaning the art of healing.

Though medical technology and clinical expertise are pivotal to contemporary medicine, successful face-to-face relief of actual suffering continues to require the application of ordinary human feeling and compassion, known in English as bedside manner.

What medical illnesses/conditions would prevent one from working in pharmaceuticals manufacturing?
Q. Hi all. What medical illnesses/conditions/infe ctions would prevent a person from working in a pharmaceuticals manufacturing environment? I am asking because a relative has been offered a job in a pharmaceuticals manufacturing environment, but require some kind of medical clearance before he can commence. He most likely have one or two STI from his sexual relationships. Is that likely to show up in a medical clearance / affect his chances of getting the job?

A. Most STIs are essentially bloodborn pathogens, and present in the sexual mucosa. They aren't communicable by saliva, droplets, breath or casual contact. Of the main STDs, HIV is the most worrisome as it's chronic and relatively deadly. I can see there being some worry over that one, but in an environment like pharmaceutical manufacturing any blood contact is going to be treated with deadly seriousness, regardless of HIV. If it's a bacterial STI - Chlamydia, gonnorhea, or syphilis again, not a big deal. They can be treated and are rather difficult to spread. He might be asked to stay home for a week for the antibiotics to kick in. The one that really comes to mind is tuberculosis. TB is spread by casual contact, aerosol droplets and saliva. [cont.]
