Viral Treatment Options – Vaccines or Antivirals
There are many opinions on the need and/or importance of vaccines in preventing the spread of disease. Our children are required to vaccinations before entering school and healthcare workers must have them when working in environments where they can come into contact with bloodborne pathogens. In healthcare facilities, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and Hepatitis C (HCV) are the two more prominent infectious concerns for medical staff.
To prepare for your discussion, research the two diseases HIV and HCV. Based on your research, discuss whether you think that a vaccine will be developed for either of these diseases within the next ten years. Why or why not?
