How Does the Human Papillomavirus Contribute to CoVID?

The term CoVID is the acronym for coccionella virus infection. This is the virus that causes chickenpox. Chickenpox is a highly contagious illness caused by the varicella-zoster virus. It usually affects children between the ages of five and nineteen, but adults and those with weakened immune systems are also susceptible to the disease.

CO VID is caused by a unique coronavirus – a member of the herpes family called “shingles”. People who have strong underlying immune systems, such as those who have HIV/AIDS and those who suffer from sickle cell anemia are at much higher risk for contracting CoVID than those who do not have these problems. If a person with healthy immune systems comes into contact with an infected person, they may develop the disease; however, this is not always the case. Some viruses, such as the varicella-zoster virus, don’t linger and can be contracted again after being treated.

A case in point involves an elderly woman who had a major stroke several years ago. She was able to eat, drink, and bathe on her own, but because she was so severely injured, she spent the next few weeks confined to a wheelchair. Medical personnel say she benefited greatly from having been able to stay home and be cared for by a skilled health care provider. After several successful treatments of various types of surgery, she was released from the hospital and was able to return home around others. However, she now requires ongoing care in order to maintain the strength of her immune system and to prevent future complications.

If a person has symptoms consistent with COVs, they should seek medical attention. Symptoms of CoVIDS include flu-like symptoms, including fever, tiredness, headaches, sneezing, chills, and more. The virus spreads through secretions from the nose, throat, or mouth, and if an infected person is coughing it up or holding their mouth open, they could be spreading the virus around themselves. It’s also possible to spread the virus through secretions from the eyes, and that is why some individuals develop red bumps within six feet of others when the virus spreads.

Viruses such as the recently-identified swine flu are serious enough to cause a severe illness and to cause death if not treated promptly. However, there is a much lower risk of serious illness or death when looking at the spread of CoVIDs. Those who are sick but are not showing any outward symptoms of the illness are at a lower risk of spreading the virus around themselves. As an example, if an elderly woman were to become sick, and everyone else ignored the fact that she was sick – even while she was showing similar signs of illness – it is estimated that she could have potentially spread the illness to as many as five other people within the span of one day. For this reason, those with an acute illness are often advised not to share personal items, such as hand warmers, towels and blankets, unless they have been properly tested and identified as having no current or future risk of transmission to others.

Viruses can spread by way of air travel, and it’s very important for individuals to ensure that they are tested for any type of virus during any type of respiratory illness. If someone has an acute illness which affects the lungs and causes them to cough up mucous, they should always stay in close proximity of an appropriate testing facility. Even if an infected person is coughing up greenish colored mucous, if it’s not clear that the virus has spread significantly from the lungs to the rest of the body, there may still be a risk of transmitting the virus to others. Those who do not test positive for the disease are still at risk, however, and should keep themselves in close proximity to others who may be sick.
