Answering this
question would definitely help in developing policies about when such spraying should be
done. It also will help policy makers in deciding whether or not such a strategy should be
used or recommended in the future. It also forces everyone to really look at whether or
not this is even THE strategy to use to contain the spread of the virus. Thinking back to the early 80s, it was at the treatment stage that the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was first encountered. After much research, we now know the behavior of the virus, how it is transmitted, and what treatments work and don’t work. People infected with HIV are living longer, though many people around the world are still dying from AIDS. Probably the most effective way to eliminate the disease is not to get infected in the first place. Thus, prevention should still be our working goal. Along the way, we need to critique the strategies we use to address the problems that come up. By doing so, we can either discard what don’t work, or enhance solutions that work, but possibly not in all instances. Though it may seem like trial and error, the consistent conducting of summative research would reduce the number of errors committed, and make development and implementation of new and improved strategies less of a ‘trial.” |
