    4) Not very far, because once the hot virus is on the plane, it can infect everyone on the plane, and go anywhere else to infect those places. I think this is important, because that means viruses can spread very easily and can also cause a lot of trouble. 5) Diffusion is the spreading of something more widely, which relates to geography because of how geographic features spread overtime. 6) Most diseases are named from when they are discovered.…

    Globalization and the associated advancements in technology and medicine have done much more to rid the world of dangerous and widespread diseases like polio and smallpox than they have to contribute negatively to public health. All-the-same, though, the increased possibility of global spread of disease is a an important and worrisome concern. I do not believe that the international flow of goods, food, and people should be stemmed for the sake of public health on anything but a case by case basis. As developing countries accrue wealth and political stability, health standards will rise and risk of disease will diminish. In the meantime, preventing the flow of goods, people, and food between nations will only slow development and inhibit freedom.…

    The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC, 2016b) states that Zika virus infection spread through the bite of an infected Aedes mosquito, by sexual contact, or from a pregnant woman to her fetus. Although casual contact from person to person does not transmit the infection, preventive measures are necessary and are focused not just on the personal protection but also in the reduction of vector density (Sikka, et. al., 2016). The Reduction of vector density consists in environmental considerations such as maintenance and cleaning of the water storage system. On the other hand, personal protection means to decrease the contact with the vector and be aware of the risks of transmission, sign, and symptoms of the infection.…

    Thank you for taking the time to read my proposal to address the pressing issue of the ever spreading Zika Virus. The recent American outbreak of the widespread Zika epidemic has called for cautious measures to be taken in areas of high mosquito population. There have been several moments in the past few months where I would find myself swatting mosquitos, only to have those around me continuously warn me about Zika. The impact the virus has had on the general public has caused mild levels of hysteria across populations in the tri-state area. It is my understanding that UNICEF’s primary goals are to improve conditions until they are made suitable for children.…
