FEVER CAUSES |
|
|
Most viral infections are spread by
inhalation of aerosolised particles, by intake of contaminated water
or food, or by direct contact. Infection then spreads locally and
thereafter into the blood stream or lymph channels. Some of the
viral infections can be transmitted sexually or by direct
inoculation into the blood stream.
The duration of the primary infection may vary from days to several
weeks. Manifestation of the disease clinically is usually a
consequence of the virus multiplying at a specific site. Even though
the fever comes down, in some infections the virus continues to
multiply and cause persistent infection. |
