The answer is D
Step-by-step explanation:
Specific drugs are used to curb infection or diseases caused by specific pathogens. An infection can be caused by either bacteria, virus or fungi. Considering their different mechanism of infection, viral infections are treated with the use of ANTIVIRAL DRUGS while bacterial infections are treated with the use of ANTIBIOTICS.
According to this question, staphylococcus is a bacterial genus and hence, patients with staphylococcus can be treated with antibiotics while flu is a viral disease, hence can only be treated with antivirals.
