A noteworthy boost is currently being seen in the number of parvovirus cases every three to five years. The number of cases of the parvovirus is also perceived to be increasing from year to year although it is not very apparent as it only increases very slightly at an annual rate. The parvovirus in humans is also capable of producing epidemics. The last recorded epidemic year of the parvovirus occurred in 1998 affecting millions of people. Outbreaks of the virus can also occur. Parvovirus outbreaks normally take place in nurseries (parvo symptoms) and schools due to a number of reasons. First is because children are more susceptible to viruses and diseases because they have weaker immune systems and second is because children in schools or children in general are more unclean when it comes to hygiene.
