Children younger than 5 or those with weakened immune systems are most likely to get viral meningitis. It can also be transmitted by ticks and mosquitoes in some parts of the world. Enteroviruses are in the feces, mucus, and saliva of infected people, and are transmitted through direct contact with these fluids.

recover in 7-10 days
- Antibiotics don't fight against viruses, so they are no help in the treatment of viral meningitis, but could help treat bacterial meningitis
PREVENTION:
- Wash your hands often especially after coming into contact with other's bodily fluids
- Avoid close contact with those who are sick
- Clean/disinfect frequently used surfaces
