-Herpes Virus: First discovered in 1873

-Mumps and Measles:  In 1912, became a nationally known disease in the U.S

Flavivirus: Was discovered in 1970 ]]> 2016-11-17 22:22:27 UTC https://padlet.com/llissovaia/b2jfqjw7jvyo/wish/138579711 clissovaia https://padlet.com/llissovaia/b2jfqjw7jvyo/wish/138911959 Viral meningitis is contagious, this is because it can be easily be passed between people. Enteroviruses are present in feces, mucus, and saliva of infected individuals. Therefore easily passed through direct contact with an infected person or surface. ]]> 2016-11-20 06:58:10 UTC https://padlet.com/llissovaia/b2jfqjw7jvyo/wish/138911959 llissovaia https://padlet.com/llissovaia/b2jfqjw7jvyo/wish/139828911 If infected with Viral Meningitis rest is required for 7-10 days. Although if the person is sick with Viral Meningitis from either Herpesvirus or Influenza treatment is needed.

Because this Meningitis is a Viral infection the use of antibiotics would not help

Antiviral drugs will be used including: 

-Anciclovir (Cytovene) 

-Foscarnet (Foscavir) 

Vaccines against non-polio which is the most common type of Meningitis is not available but vaccines preventing other meningitis-causes including mumps, influenza are in use ]]> 2016-11-25 01:13:27 UTC https://padlet.com/llissovaia/b2jfqjw7jvyo/wish/139828911 llissovaia https://padlet.com/llissovaia/b2jfqjw7jvyo/wish/139829981 Enteroviruses are found in the respiratory secretions and stool (sometimes present in the blood)

Herpes Virus in a human infect most of the ectodermic cells in the body

Mumps and measles
virus infection happens through the respiratory tract , then it spreads throughout the body]]> 2016-11-25 01:31:49 UTC https://padlet.com/llissovaia/b2jfqjw7jvyo/wish/139829981 llissovaia https://padlet.com/llissovaia/b2jfqjw7jvyo/wish/139830014 Viral Meningitis is a Lytic Cycle meaning Infection of virus occurs, secondly the virus will grow and then replicate causing the host cell to burst.
