Proposal: Our project problem is researching ways to predict and prevent the spread of drug resistant diseases and viruses. We will develop a model that shows how a virus can become drug resistant through a mutation process, and how we can prevent it from becoming an outbreak. We will also need to consider the fact that nobody's immune system is the same. Your immune system is as unique as your fingerprint, so infection rate is different depending on the person. We also need to think about travel, because nowadays people can travel faster which makes it easier for a virus to spread.
