Treatment
Symptoms and Treatments of Major Depressive Disorder 2103 words - 9 pages What is major depressive disorder? Major depressive disorder is a psychiatric disorder documented in the DSM. [brightkite.com]
Treatment: Treatment remains largely experimental. The antiviral medication may be used in emergency situations. In addition to other supportive care, antibiotics are given to reduce potential secondary bacterial infections. [medigoo.com]
In addition, this volume highlights developments in genetic engineering that are paving the way for potential therapeutic treatments of these viruses. [books.google.it]
Treatment involves fluids, relief of symptoms, and treatments to maintain blood pressure and help with breathing. The smallpox virus can exist only in people—not in animals. [merckmanuals.com]

Prognosis Historically, the variola major virus, the most common smallpox virus, was associated with death rates of about 30%. [drugs.com]
Prognosis Other than measles and influenza, variola remains one of the most readily communicable infectious diseases. [ 1 ] Mortality is significant with an overall rate of about 30% (up to 90% in nonimmune populations).The highest mortality is seen in [patient.info]
What Is the Prognosis of Smallpox? Smallpox is one of the most communicable of all infectious diseases. Of those who are unvaccinated, smallpox has a 30% mortality rate. [emedicinehealth.com]

Variola virus is the etiological agent of smallpox. During the smallpox era, the only known reservoir for the virus was humans; no known animal or insect reservoirs or vectors existed. [fda.gov]
Smallpox by Maria Serna Name: Smallpox (Smallpox-Variant/Alastrim) Etiological agent: Orthopoxvirus variola major virus ( Orthopoxvirus variola minor virus ) 1 Transmission: Smallpox is transmitted through droplet nuclei or direct contact with body fluids [austincc.edu]
Epidemiology
Smallpox outbreak in two Brazilian villages: epidemiological characteristics. American Journal of Epidemiology 95, 363 –70. Dixon, C. W. ( 1948 ). [cambridge.org]
Clinical, epidemiological, serological and environmental surveys were conducted. Evidence on identification of the epidemic disease is presented. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The coverage of each virus is comprehensive, covering the biology, molecular biology, and ecology of the virus as well as the clinical and epidemiological aspects of these viruses in humans and animals. [books.google.it]

The effects on the population by a release of this virus would be potentiated by: The low population immunity Difficulty in diagnosis as health professionals have no experience of cases Density and mobility of today's populations Pathophysiology [ 1 ] [patient.info]
Prevention
History: Signs and Symptoms: Prevention: The knowledge that prior exposure reduces the severity of a subsequent infection or even eliminates it entirely has been around for hundreds of years. [austincc.edu]
Rapidly find the answers you need with separate sections on diseases and disorders, differential diagnosis, clinical algorithms, laboratory results, and clinical preventive services, plus an at-a-glance format that uses cross-references, outlines, bullets [books.google.com]
Eradicating smallpox prevented millions of deaths and—by removing the need to treat and prevent the disease—saves many countries billions of dollars. Perhaps just as important: it showed the world that disease eradication was possible. [amnh.org]
Prevention is the best response to the threat of smallpox. Prevention involves Vaccination Isolation ACAM2000 is a live vaccinia virus that reproduces in the person who receives it. [merckmanuals.com]
In the absence of a cure, treatment focuses on easing symptoms and preventing further infections. [humanillnesses.com]
