Besides flu there are numerous other viruses like: herpes simplex (cold sore, herpes genitalis) , viral hepatitis, infectious mononucleosis (glandular fever), HIV, cytomegalovirus and herpes zoster (shingles). They are also treated with antiviral drugs, like aciclovir, zelitrex and famvir. A number of STDs can also be treated with antiviral drugs. Of course prevention is better than a cure when it comes to STDs by using a condom during sexual contacts.
