I didn't mean kill everything - I just meant vaccinate for the diseases we have vaccines for - there are so many people with completely treatable diseases that will die because they did not have any medical care (like in Africa)

disease is in integral part of the life system on this planet. without disease and sickness and death, the less palatable aspects of life, we would be grossly overpopulated (which we already are). it is just another form of population control and balance from mother nature. humans think that by eliminating disease that we can make the world a better place, but in fact it would only lead to overpopulation and misery in the long run. when someone makes a check, nature balances it out. its just the way it works. the only thing we can do is strive to keep disease at bay and make people more aware of how to protect themselves, and of course, strive for cures for HIV/AIDS, cancer, TB, etc. these battles must always be fought because of the moral obligation we have to our fellow people and ourselves to alleviate suffering in the world. but we can't think that we could be gods and eliminate pain and suffering completely. this would be eliminating life all together.

In order to eliminate every disease, you have to isolate and terminate the organisms hosting the disease. Let's use a general example.. in order to eliminate AIDS from Earth, we also have to consider that we need to terminate everyone/thing with the HIV Virus. This means everybody needs to go throug hstrict testing, and the people who are hosting the disease and the virus need to be eliminated and destroyed. The proccess is impossible, because there are nearly 7BILLION people on the planet, eliminating all forms of disease would destroy majority of the Human race.
We can't just look at mainframe diseases such as AIDS/HIV, the Flu is a considered a viral disease, because there is no cure for it. This also means that everyone who has contracted hte Flu needs to be terminated.
Of course, those are only a few examples..

Though humans can't completely eradicate disease, people can fund research with donations and stuff.
