Blog of the week #8

The hot zone surprised me of the effects of diseases. Before I read the hot zone I always though diseases would be minor and it would go away. But the description of how Monet suffer changed my mine on diseases. To top it off that disease was the least deadliest compared to the others. This diseases was incurable before and probably still is. Though Scientist are close to inventing a vaccine, you never know when it will come up so we must be careful in what we do.

A vaccination help create antigenic which helps the immune system develop adaptive immunity to virus. Vaccination can help prevent the effects of infection. It is considered to be the most effect of preventing the full effects of infectious diseases.
