There are no cures for viruses there are only treatments like antiviral medications.
There are also vaccines for some viruses that can prevent getting certain viruses all together.

Virus is by nature in inactive state. It actually it becomes alive only when it comes in contact with the living environment. In case of viral diseases it is always safe to USE the principle of prevention is better than cure. Only a doc can give proper treatment to any viral diseases.

Our immune system usually does the trick. In severe causes anti viral drugs can be used. The best way to fight viral diseases is with vaccines.

Currently the only thing we can do for viral diseases is to treat the symptoms. There is however work being carried out to try and agglutinate virus particles in the blood. This will prevent them for being able to enter a cell, thus stopping the infection from spreading.

Hi there !
You can be careful..but 100% protection is NOT guaranteed...
safety precautions could be :
1. Avoid close contacts with the patients.
2. If un avoidable, use protective gears like masks and gloves
while handling patiemts.
3. Avoid visitors, especially children , to the hospitals.
4. Avoid taking outside food especially in times of epidemics.
5. Concentrate on our diet, as to what we are eating and what
we should eat !
6. Though "prevention is better than cure", "early detection,
Diagnosis and Treatment" also seems to be very important. !
7. Universal safety precautions like hand washing, toilet
hygeiene, environmental hygiene also are important !
