Abstract

This comprehensive review paper delves deeply into the intricate realm of viruses, investigating their classification, diversity, origins, and pathways of transmission. It sheds light on the significant threats that viruses pose to humanity, including human infectious diseases, outbreaks, pandemics, antibiotic resistance, and their link to cancer. Furthermore, it scrutinizes the challenges presented by the emergence and resurgence of viruses in the contemporary world. In response to these viral threats, the paper explores the range of strategies for managing them. Firstly, it delves into the essential role of vaccination and immunization programs in safeguarding populations against viral infections. Secondly, it critically examines the potential of antiviral therapies for treating viral diseases. Thirdly, it elucidates the importance of vector control methods as pivotal tools in controlling diseases transmitted by vectors. The “One Health” approach is investigated, emphasizing the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health in the context of viral hazard management. Finally, the paper underscores the significance of quarantine and isolation measures in preventing the spread of infectious viruses. This comprehensive review paper furnishes an in-depth overview of the dangers posed by viruses and underscores the critical necessity of implementing effective management strategies to safeguard public health and global well-being.
