Our children are required to get vaccinations before entering school, and health care workers must have them when working in environments where they can encounter bloodborne pathogens. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and Hepatitis C (HCV) are the two more prominent concerns for medical staff and for the worldwide community. Despite precautions, these diseases are both considered emerging infections. Neither of them have had vaccines developed that are effective at preventing the contraction of the disease. For your initial post, research the two diseases HIV and HCV. Based on your research, discuss whether you think that a vaccine will be developed for either of these diseases within the next ten years. Why or why not? For your reply post, expand your peer’s ideas by sharing examples from your own experience or readings, suggesting outside resources to support the topic, and/or asking furthering questions to dig deeper into the topic. Add shortcut Note: • “Expand on your peer’s ideas” needs more than 1 – 2 sentences for an acceptable reply • If you refer to a website or article, be sure to cite it in APA format. This prevents plagiarism and allows your fellow students to review the cites and increase the class knowledge base. Please make your initial post by midweek and respond to at least one other student’s post by the end of the week. Please check the Course Calendar for specific due dates.
