Influenza, known as the flu, is an acute infection caused by one of three closely related viruses known as influenza Types A, B, and C. The rapid onset of the infection and the potential for high morbidity and mortality, particularly in high-risk patient populations such as the elderly and young children, make prompt and effective treatment with antiviral medication extremely difficult.
H5N1 influenza virus is a type of influenza
virus that causes avian influenza, a highly contagious and severe respiratory
disease in birds. This virus has the capability of infecting humans. Fever
and cough, acute respiratory distress, shortness of breath/difficulty
breathing, abdominal pain, and diarrhoea are all symptoms. Working with
poultry, touching an infected bird, and eating raw or undercooked poultry meat
are all risk factors. Treatment with influenza
therapeutics medications is available.
If the
infection's symptoms are not treated promptly, they can lead to complications
such as bacterial pneumonia, myositis, encephalitis, Reyes' syndrome, and sinus
and ear infections. The infection is spread through the air by sneezing or
coughing. Children are particularly vulnerable to influenza B infection, though
it is also known to affect a significant number of adults.
Most
people recover completely, but severe complications such as pneumonia can occur.
The goal of influenza treatment is to prevent such complications and to
alleviate symptoms until the infection is cured. For hospitalised patients, antibiotic
therapies should start as early as possible. Annual influenza vaccination is the best way to
prevent infection because it can be done well before exposure to the influenza
virus and provides immunity throughout the influenza season.
