Some antibiotics are safe to take throughout pregnancy, some pose known risks to a developing baby, and there is not adequate information about the effects of taking antibiotics during pregnancy for several others. The other factor is where women are during pregnancy.

Have you researched which antibiotics are safe to take and what their availability might be in communities lacking resources and access to medication?

The idea of training individuals within an impoverished community has been entered by many individuals in this competition. You should look through the entries and contact those that share similar ideas with you.

That being said, have you looked into how these individuals are going to be trained? Who is going to do it and where is the money going to come from? I'd like to see more on the sustainability in your entry.

Remember to include the answers to these questions in your entry as that will be seen by the judges.
