Swine flu
Swine flu is caused by influenza viruses that regularly cause outbreaks in pigs. The 2009 outbreak derived from human, avian, and swine influenza strains. Symptoms include fever, muscle aches, coughing, and vomiting. Historical pandemics like the 1918 Spanish Flu killed millions. Homeopathic treatments were found to have much lower mortality rates compared to allopathic treatments during the 1918 flu pandemic. To reduce risk of infection, avoid contact with sick individuals and practice good hygiene. Remaining calm and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can help boost immunity.
Influenza8p
- Influenza is a highly infectious viral illness that causes annual epidemics and occasional pandemics, with the 1918 pandemic resulting in an estimated 21 million deaths worldwide.
- Influenza viruses are classified into types A, B, and C, with types A and B responsible for seasonal epidemics. Type A viruses can undergo antigenic shifts or drifts, resulting in pandemics or epidemics respectively.
- Influenza vaccination is recommended for many high-risk groups to reduce hospitalizations and deaths from influenza. Both inactivated and live attenuated vaccines are available, with inactivated vaccines recommended for young children, elderly, and immunocompromised individuals.
L 3 4.approach to fever
Fever is a common symptom of infection but not all fevers are caused by infections and some infections do not present with fever. Certain febrile illnesses present with a rash at a predictable time relative to the onset of fever, which can help identify the specific condition.
Seasonal influenza vaccines
Influenza types A and B are responsible for annual epidemics and can cause illness ranging from mild to severe or deadly. Each year, the WHO recommends updated influenza vaccine strains to protect against the viruses likely to circulate that season, based on global surveillance. Although the recommended strains remained the same from 2010-2012, annual vaccination is still recommended since immunity declines over time.

Influenza
Influenza is a highly contagious viral infection that causes fever, body aches, and respiratory symptoms. It spreads easily and can cause severe illness especially in young children, elderly adults, and those with weakened immune systems. The influenza virus is classified into types A, B, and C. Type A causes the most serious disease. Symptoms are diagnosed through viral testing of respiratory samples. Complications can include pneumonia, which is especially dangerous for high-risk groups. Treatment focuses on antiviral drugs that target the virus's neuraminidase or M2 proteins.
Influenza
Influenza viruses are enveloped viruses with segmented, single-stranded RNA genomes that cause influenza in humans and some animals. There are four main types of influenza viruses: A, B, C, and D. Types A and B cause seasonal epidemics in humans. Influenza A viruses bind to host cells using hemagglutinin and release from cells using neuraminidase. They replicate in the nucleus and bud from the cell surface. Seasonal epidemics are driven by antigenic drift, while pandemics arise through antigenic shift. Influenza spreads through respiratory droplets and causes fever, cough, and muscle aches. Diagnosis is through viral culture, rapid tests, or PCR. Vaccination and antiv

Seasonal influeza vaccine 2018
- Wild birds are the natural reservoir for all influenza A subtypes. Seasonal influenza viruses circulate worldwide and can cause disease in humans every year.
- The current subtypes causing seasonal flu in humans are influenza A(H1N1) and influenza A(H3N2). Influenza B viruses are not divided into subtypes but can be categorized into lineages.
- Seasonal flu vaccines must be updated each year to match circulating strains. They provide moderate protection on average but vaccination lessens severity and complications, especially in high risk groups.
Trivalent Inactivated Seasonal Influenza Vaccine 2019
Seasonal influenza is caused by influenza viruses, mainly affecting the respiratory system. Influenza A viruses are further classified into subtypes based on two surface proteins: hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA). Wild birds are the natural reservoir for all influenza A subtypes. Antigenic drift, or small changes in the HA or NA proteins, causes yearly seasonal influenza epidemics as it allows the virus to evade immunity from prior infection or vaccination. Antigenic shift, or major changes in these proteins, has the potential to cause global pandemics by introducing a novel virus to which no one is immune. Public health experts work to predict the strains likely to circulate each flu season and develop vaccines

What is Influenza?
Seasonal Influenza is an acute viral infection that spreads easily from person to person, and can affect anybody in any age group. Its infection ranges from mild illness to severe illness and sometimes death.
Seasonal influenza viruses cause annual epidemics that peak during winter in temperate regions. Worldwide, these annual epidemics are estimated to result in about 3 to 5 million cases of severe illness, and about 250,000 to 500,000 deaths; especially within high-risk groups.
Signs and Symptoms of Influenza:
- Sudden onset of high fever (may not be present in all patients) - Cough (usually dry) - Sore throat and runny or blocked nose - Headache - Muscle and joint pain, severe malaise - Fatigue - Vomiting and diarrhea in some patients especially in children

Influenza In Long Term Care
Influenza is a serious viral respiratory illness that poses risks to residents and staff in long-term care facilities. It can cause serious illness or death, especially in older residents with chronic medical conditions. Prevention strategies in long-term care facilities include surveillance, education, testing, respiratory hygiene, standard precautions, droplet precautions when needed, restrictions on ill visitors and staff, antiviral chemoprophylaxis, and annual influenza vaccination for all residents and staff. The goal is to prevent influenza, limit transmission within facilities, and prevent complications from influenza among long-term care residents.

Influenza is a serious public health problem that spreads easily and causes annual epidemics worldwide. There are three main types of influenza viruses - A, B, and C. Influenza A and B are included in seasonal flu vaccines. Signs of influenza include fever, cough, sore throat and body aches. High risk groups include young children, elderly adults, and those with underlying health conditions. Influenza spreads through respiratory droplets when infected people cough or sneeze. Vaccination is the most effective prevention method. Avian influenza primarily affects birds and can be mild or highly lethal depending on the strain. Some avian influenza viruses can infect humans but do not usually spread between people.

Influenza general intro. (symptoms and prevention )
Influenza, or the flu, is caused by influenza viruses that infect the respiratory tract. There are three main types of influenza viruses that affect humans: A, B, and C. Type A is the most severe and can cause pandemics, while type B primarily affects children. The flu spreads through respiratory droplets when infected people cough or sneeze. Symptoms include fever, body aches, fatigue, and cough. Prevention methods include an annual flu vaccine and good hygiene practices. While the flu is usually self-limiting, high-risk groups like the elderly are more prone to developing complications.

INFLUENZA DISEASE
Influenza, commonly known as the flu, is caused by RNA viruses that infect birds and mammals. Typical symptoms include fever, chills, cough and fatigue. While usually self-limiting, influenza can cause serious complications like pneumonia, especially in young, old or immunocompromised individuals. Influenza spreads through respiratory droplets when infected people cough or sneeze. Vaccination and good hygiene practices can help reduce transmission. Antiviral drugs are effective for treatment but some influenza strains have developed resistance.

Influenza
Infectious disease epidemiology describes influenza as an acute viral infection typically causing abrupt onset of fever and respiratory symptoms like cough and sore throat. Complications can include primary viral or secondary bacterial pneumonia. Influenza viruses are transmitted through respiratory secretions when people cough, sneeze or talk. There are annual epidemics in winter months in temperate regions that vary in severity each year. Pandemics occur less frequently and represent major antigenic shifts in influenza virus subtypes. Surveillance, vaccines, antiviral drugs, rest, and handwashing help prevent and treat influenza.
Swine flu overview
The document provides an overview of swine flu, including:
1) It defines suspected, probable, and confirmed cases of swine flu based on symptoms, exposure history, and test results.
2) The symptoms of swine flu in humans are similar to seasonal flu and include fever, cough, sore throat, and body aches. Complications can include pneumonia and worsening of chronic conditions.
3) As of July 2009, the WHO had confirmed over 94,000 cases in 122 countries with 429 deaths related to the new H1N1 virus.

Pneumothorax, also known as a collapsed lung, is a condition that occurs when air leaks into the space between the lung and chest wall.
