Providing people with valuable information to raise awareness among people to keep this world safe and healthy.

1. Influenzas

2. What is an
Influenza?
Influenza is an
infectious disease
caused by a virus.
Symptoms to this type
of sickness can vary
between mild and
severe. Common
symptoms include:
High fever, runny nose,
coughing, sneezing,
headache, and fatigue.
Influenza is mostly
referred to as “Flu”.

3. Influenza
Type A
Influenza Type A is one of
the four different influenza
viruses, which can cause a
cough, body ache, and a
sore throat. Influenza A is
highly contagious and
spreads around easily that
is why it is important to
take safety precautions
while in a time
experiencing this type of
virus. In addition to
humans, this virus is found
in other living organisms.

4. Influenza
Type B
Unlike the Type A flu
virus, the Type B flu can
only be found in humans.
This type of flu can cause
less severe reaction than
influenza type A, but only
from time to time is the
type B flu extremely
harmful. Hence all this
Influenza type B is still
really contagious similarly
to Influenza type A.

5. Different Types
of Viruses
• CoronaVirus
• Ebola
• Spanish Flu
• SARS
• Marburg
• HIV
• And many more…

6. Origin of
Viruses
Global society continues to be
dazzled from where do viruses
develop? Many people ask that
question, and opinions differed
on the answer. Here are some
believes by seasoned
Virologists:
• The Genetic Material
Hypothesis
• The Bacteria Hypothesis
• The Animal Hypothesis
None of the hypothesis have
been
scientifically proven yet.

7. The Genetic
Material
In this hypothesis, it is
believed that Viruses and
Bacteria originate from
mobile genetic elements,
that are capable of
moving within a genome,
and have gained the
ability to exit one cell and
enter another. This is
one of the hypothesis
virologists believe in.

8. The Bacteria
Hypothesis
For this Hypothesis, the
given thoughts are that
the virus has developed
inside the bacteria
which then moves on to
other cells applying the
flu on the Human Body.
Once again, this
hypothesis has not
been confirmed but is a
thought shared
between some people
around the world.

9. The Animal
Hypothesis
For the last Hypothesis, the
thought that we get viruses
from already infected
animals is a big possibility
especially after revealing the
truth behind how the
CoronaVirus all began e. We
can get infected by animals
while getting in close
contact. This is the prior
hypothesis that has the
highest merit in my opinion
behind how viruses formed,
although it yet has not been
proved.

10. How do They
Spread?
Viruses spread in
different ways
according to the virus.
The most common
way viruses are spread
usually is:
- Airborne
- Physical touch
- Mouth droplets
- Through Surfaces

11. a
Airborne
Spread
Many viruses can be spread
by the air which is the main
reason we wear masks
during a virus outbreak. This
type of spread can be
someone’s droplets flying
through the air all the way to
another person which then
starts to spread the disease
widely...
This type of spread is said to
be the most effective
between the rest.

12. a
Physical
Spread
Viruses can also be spread
physically. During an outbreak
it is important we don’t touch
each other physically to
prevent spread of the virus.
During physical touch people
who have already consumed
the virus spread the germs
during the physical touch.
(Handshakes, Hi Fives, etc.…)

13. Droplet
Spread
Viruses mainly the
respiratory ones spread
contagiously through
droplets. Wearing masks is
also useful in protecting a
person from consuming
the virus through this type
of spread. Social
Distancing also denies
viruses spreading by giving
distance between people
to prevent droplets from
transporting from one
person to another.

14. Surface
Spread
Cold and flu virus droplets
may remain infectious for
several hours, depending on
where they land. Viruses
generally remain active
longer on stainless steel,
plastic and similar hard
surfaces than fabric and soft
surfaces. The temperature
and humidity of the
environment also determine
how long cold and flu
viruses stay on surfaces.
