  1. It depends what the actual epidemic is!!!! An epidemic is not one particular thing, it could be a number of deadly viruses and illnesses! It occurs when there is an outbreak of something that cannot be controlled.  


  2. like a disease?

    a epidemic pretty much has no prevention for desease look at the black plague, the spanish flu, sars..

    the causes could be unclassified as in no one knows or they could be just one of those freak things that happen from a result.. there could be many causes for the black plague but no one cause was speculated and the basic prevention was burning the body which helped stopped the black plague was the london fires way back when..

  3. What Is Encephalitis?

    Encephalitis is an inflammation of the brain. It usually results from an infection, most often by a virus, but sometimes by bacteria, a fungus, or parasites. In rare cases, it is caused by brain injury, a drug or vaccine reaction, or poison.

    A virus, or other germ in the blood stream, can be carried to the brain. Germs in the brain attract white blood cells, the body's main line of defense against invaders, and this sets up an inflammatory reaction. The brain tissue then swells (called cerebral edema); bleeding may occur within the brain (called intracerebral hemorrhage), and brain damage may occur.

    Can Encephalitis Be Prevented

    The same kinds of precautions used against infectious disease in general also apply to encephalitis prevention, including maintaining good hygiene and avoiding food or water that may be tainted.

    Travelers headed overseas may want to get vaccinated or take drugs with them that are effective against infections common in the region they are visiting.
