Although the discovery of antibiotics led to great
advances in clinical practice, it did not represent
a ------- bacterial illness, for there are some bacteria
that cannot be ------- treated with antibiotics.

What’s your approach? Have you tried to apply support/contrast here?

For first blank its contrast because of ALTHOUGH so 1st blank should be negative. For second blank due to presence of comma, 2nd sentence and 3rd sentence are support. 2nd blank should be negative but there is cannot in the sentence so some positive word.
Is this approach correct?

Looks good to me, what’s your confusion?
