Impact of HMPV on the Human Body

Abstract : This study is conducted to identify the grievousness that can be caused by the Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV). The major purpose of conducting this study is to spread awareness about the virus. The means and mode of spreading and how it can be prevented from spreading. HMPV is highly contagious, and it is not easy to differentiate it from the common cold. With fast-moving technical advancement, the countries are getting more and more connected with each other. This is a boom in terms of learning and growing in mutual collaboration, but there is a dark side to it, too. Direct contact among a large number of individuals is taking place around the globe. If a person is infected by any contagious disease and not maintaining proper precautions can infect others coming in contact, the carelessness or the innocent unawareness will act like a never-ending chain of spreading the virus. The brief history of the virus and the pattern of the infection is pointed out in this study. Through this study, the major causes of contamination can be identified and how to prevent further spreading. The data used in the study are obtained from secondary data sources because of time limitations.
