In many works involving vampires or zombiesnote usually the Technically Living Zombie variant, The Virus that they infect victims with changes them into a form that is permanent. However, there are some stories which someone is capable of finding a cure for these otherwise irreversible conditions, even if victims have lost important body parts required to survive. These types of viruses usually exist within more family-friendly works in order to avoid any unnecessary violence and/or deaths for young viewers to see or works that do not desire to kill off any of the canon or significant characters who are afflicted. On the other hand, darker works will use the potential for a cure just to make things more cruel when the undead are simply killed permanently—especially if the ones who injured them assumed it was incurable. This can also happen as a result of No Ontological Inertia when the vampire who changed the human into a vampire is destroyed. Possible Sub-Trope of Death Is Cheap, Our Vampires Are Different and Our Zombies Are Different. One way where Undeath Always Ends. |

Adventure Time: In the episode "From Bad To Worse", the Candy Kingdom suffers another Zombie Apocalypse thanks to Cinnamon Bun eating preserved zombie flesh. Luckily, Princess Bubblegum created a formula which cures the afflicted, which her rat concocts for her. However, the serum does not grant immunity to the virus, as Jake was turned back by the other zombies the second he was cured. In the Stakes miniseries, Marceline decides she'd prefer to go back to aging (slowly) as she did before she became a vampire, and Princess Bubblegum is able to do so by remove the vampire essence from her body. The problem is, releasing said essence ends up bringing the vampires she took it from Back from the Dead. After the others are defeated, the Vampire King agrees to have the same procedure done, even though it returns him to being a non-sapient animal. Then their essence all spills out again into a World-Wrecking Wave, forcing Marceline to absorb it back into herself. |

The Secret Show: In "Zombie Attack", Doctor Doctor unleashes a Zombie Apocalypse upon the world, with the zombies coming about either by touching them or saying the words "yes" or "no". As a failsafe, Doctor Doctor also encodes a cheat code into the zombifying controller so she won't lose. The zombification is cured by changing the cheat code to "uhhh uhh" (the zombie noises). | |

However, the change is not permanent until they have killed their first human. If the master vampire whose blood they drank is killed before this, then they revert back to being fully human. | |

Metal Slug: One of the Status Effects in the series turns the player character into a mummy if hit by a purple mist/liquid, or a zombie when hit by the zombie's liquids. This results in a lower movement speed and if the player has a weapon, defaults them to the starter pistol/revolver. Fortunately, picking up a vial of serum (common on levels with the Mummy status effect) or a special medkit for zombification instantly reverts the character. | |

AdventureQuest allows players to cure their vampyrism or lycanthropy (or any combination of the two) by completing the "The Cure" quest. The titular "cure" is a green sludge that is naturally produced in a hidden cave, which the player character can drink after finding it. It also has the side effect of turning Moglins into feral beasts if they happen to touch it, which is exactly what happens to the player's Moglin guide after he falls in (he gets better once you beat him down). | |

The Sims as a series zigzags this: The Sims 2 has it that zombies cannot be cured, even by killing them and resurrecting them again. Vampires can be cured if they consume a potion purchased from the Gypsy Matchmaker. The Sims 3 has it that zombies can be cured through multiple means. Vampires can only be cured with a purchase from the science lab. The Sims 4 has it that vampires can be cured by a drink that can be mixed at the bar. A maxed out Vampire Lore skill level is required. |

When Jimmy is forced to retreat from them for the time being, the two boys end up bumping into and biting Cindy and Libby, likewise turning the two into a vampire (Cindy) and werewolf (Libby). Jimmy eventually manages to reverse the changes by the end of the episode of course. | |

In The Elder Scrolls, vampirism is a transmittable disease originating as an archdemon's "blessing". In the first three days of catching the disease, vampirism is incredibly easy to cure, after which the diseased becomes a vampire for real and it becomes a lot harder to get rid of. Even then, vampirism is curable, but the cures tend to be obscure and hard to come across, although they do completely reverse all of its effects. | |

Codename: Kids Next Door: In L.O.C.K.D.O.W.N, Numbuh 1 ends up spanked by Count Spankulot without his gloved hand which turns him into a spank happy vampire. He turns Numbuh 2, 3, and 4 but Numbuh 5 manages to stop them and bring them back to their senses enough to go visit Spankulot in prison and find out the transformation is easily curable if they spank him back. In the movie, Operation Z.E.R.O, Grandfather can use his power to turn kids into Citi-Zombies, which are, well, grown up and very ugly version of the victim as zombies (though the power likewise works on grown ups, just without the age up). The whole of the KND organization save Numbuh 1 are infected through the movie, though Nigel manages to temporarily revert his team to semi-normal in the climax through the "birthday suits" (devices meant to stop aging effects, in this case they were crafted on the quick by Numbuh 2 so they didn't work at full capacity). When Grandfather is defeated and has his memory wiped through the decommission machine, this lifts the Citi-Zombie effect and reverts all his victims back to normal. |

Done temporarily in Big Time Rush's episode "Big Time Halloween", which takes place in a world full of monsters, where Kendall is a werewolf, James a vampire, Carlos a Frankenstein-monster, and Logan a zombie. When Griffin demands the whole band turns "normal" for their Halloween concert, Gustavo and Kelly- who are now a mad scientist and his assistant- need to turn them into ordinary humans. By the end, their machine actually works for a short time, meaning that for a few hours, Logan and James were both "cured" of their undead state. | |

In Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, humans are converted into demons in a similar mode than vampires and zombies in other works: any kind of non-lethal wound received by a demon (and even giving blood to the victim as seen with the Big Bad) converts the human in a blood-thisrty demon in minutes. The main story centers about Nezuko Kamado being the sole survivor of the killing of her entire family, eventually converting into a demon. But thanks to the love of her brother, she retains some humanity and eventually helps and saves him. Since then, her brother Tanjiro travels for a cure to Nezuko no matter what, even becoming a Demon Slayer to get answers as well avenge his family. During the series, it's revealed a cure is developed and there are hints that Nezuko can be saved. | |

In the South Park episode "Pinkeye", Kenny is turned into a zombie after being crushed to death by a space station and doused in Worcestershire sauce as embalming fluid, going on to turn the other residents, including Chef, Pip, Clyde and Wendy, into zombies. After Kyle kills Kenny again, the zombified victims become alive again and the dismembered corpses return to being lifeless. That they didn't find this out until after killing many zombies is played for Black Comedy. | |

In the Legends of Tomorrow, Episode of the Dead "Abominations", the Legends travel to American Civil War in 1863 and find it ravaged by a zombie virus that a Time Pirate had accidentally released there. Mick ends up being infected by said zombie virus and is kept contained on the Waverider until Ray and Stein can engineer an antidote. While the first attempt fails, they do manage to make it work be aerosolizing it. The antidote is then used to dispatch the rest of the confederate zombies without any lasting consequences other than a lot of rotting body parts left over from the carnage. | |

Gravity Falls: In "Scary-Oke", Dipper unleashes a zombie apocalypse on the Mystery Shack. Soos tells the twins that he knows exactly what to do in situations like this, then he gets turned into a zombie. After the rest of the zombies (who were raised from the dead) have their heads exploded by music while Soos was watching TV, the virus is revealed to be curable, requiring a lot of formaldehyde and cinnamon. | |
