Knowledge has been the biggest factor in stopping the spread of HIV, so organizations are working to educate unserviced areas and slow the transmission of the virus. Africa faces a huge HIV and AIDS epidemic because people are uneducated about the disease, and there are not enough resources to help individuals. Some countries are making strides at managing HIV, but underdeveloped countries still suffer. Countries like Zimbabwe, Vietnam, Hispaniola, the Congo, and more face threats from meningitis, cholera and measles.Ī few viruses are still global issues because there are no vaccinations available. However, third world countries are often ravaged by preventable viruses. Many countries no longer fear epidemics because of the availability of vaccines and information. Viruses like HIV, the flu and smallpox have killed thousands when epidemics have occurred. Some viruses have been serious enough to cause global problems. Some vaccines are available to help prevent shingles for those who may be sensitive to the disease like the elderly or those with HIV. However, some still experience lingering pain for up to a year after the outbreak. These symptoms usually last for two to four weeks. Shingles usually effects those with weakened immune systems and causes painful blisters, fever, headaches and stabbing pains throughout the body. The chickenpox virus can be reactivated when one is an adult and cause shingles. However, anyone who catches chickenpox is at risk for shingles. This practice can ensure a person does not catch the disease when they are older and it is fatal. Some parents expose children to the pox because their immune system will be stronger after, and they will not need to worry about the disease again. The symptoms typically last a week or less.

If the immune system fails, then vaccines can stop other viruses. The human body’s immune system is always working to counter any virus a person may come into contact with. Millions of viruses exist that are spread through colds, animals, sexual contact, DNA and more. One does not treat a virus but works on curing the symptoms.
