Influenza, commonly known as the flu, is a highly contagious viral infection that primarily affects the respiratory system. It is caused by influenza viruses which can lead to seasonal outbreaks and occasional pandemics.

Influenza is characterized by symptoms such as fever, chills, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, muscle aches, fatigue, and headaches. While most cases of the flu are mild and resolve on their own, it can lead to severe illness, and hospitalization, particularly in vulnerable populations such as the elderly, young children, and individuals with underlying health conditions.

Vaccination is a crucial preventive measure against influenza, and ongoing research and surveillance efforts help to better understand and combat this ever-changing virus.
