The flu season is here... what to expect when you get sick
What is the occasional flu?
The two types of influenza that cause occasional pandemics are influenza A, which is divided into two subtypes: A(H3N2) and A(H1N1)pdm09; and influenza B, which is divided into families: B/Victoria and B/Yamagata.
How is seasonal infection communicated?
This infection is transmitted by breathing and contact. After contamination, the time frame of estrus is 1-3 days before the primary side effects become apparent.
The moment affected individual wheezes, spits, or chops, respiratory emissions are delivered as miniature beads that can land and contaminate bystanders. In addition, if you touch a contaminated surface and put your hands on the mucous films of the eyes, nose, and mouth, you can get sick.
What are the side effects of the flu?
Clinical signs vary with age and may worsen depending on the state of well-being of the affected person. This season's virus has three primary side effects:
High fever (39°).
Adverse effects on the respiratory tract (congestion, wheezing, runny nose, difficulty relaxing).
Myalgia (body pain, muscle pain).
Migraines, severe exhaustion, loss of appetite, irritability, conjunctivitis, and acid reflux can also be associated with the side effects of the flu. It put us to sleep for seven days. With tissue and a water bottle on your fingers (to ensure great hydration), don't leave sweeping until they've fully recovered.
A risky infection that can cause complications...
Individuals with persistent cardiovascular or respiratory disease are more helpless and at greater risk of entanglements such as possible bacterial contamination. Another and less common complication is extinction, yet it is still extremely interesting and affects individuals who are now chronically debilitated.
When to arrange it?
The moment the primary side effects appear, we consult a specialist. If the medical problem seems serious, you can go straight to the trauma center or tell the crisis community. The specialist then has time off from work to recover (and especially try not to pollute partners).
How is the flu treated?
The main treatment suggested is a pain reliever such as paracetamol, which reduces fever and relieves pain. In addition, treatment is additionally available for colds and hacks. A specialist may approve an antiviral such as Tamiflu® to fight or treat. The main disadvantage is that it should be required within the first 48 hours of the onset of side effects to be truly viable.
What countermeasures should be taken to limit contamination?
If you are now weakened or need to protect yourself from possible contamination, follow similar steps:
Wash several times a day or use an alcohol-based gel and avoid contact as much as can reasonably be expected (handshakes, kisses, etc.).
Assuming you break into your sleeve, hand, or handkerchief, clean your nose in a handkerchief and cover your mouth.
Wear a face mask as a safety precaution (especially in confined spaces like an open vehicle) or on the other hand in case you're wiped out now to try not to contaminate the people around you.
Ventilate the inside of your home for about 10 minutes every day to refresh the air.
What's more, this season's virus shot everything?
Antibody against seasonal influenza is especially recommended for those with risk factors (persistent, cardiac, respiratory infections, weight, pregnancy, etc.) and for medical service workers with high openness.
People who have a place with a gambling party receive an annual vaccination voucher issued by a government-managed pension. A nurse or colleague can regulate the seasonal flu vaccination. The main thing is to get the immunization as soon as time allows (not when the plague starts), since the body needs 15 days to supply antibodies to protect itself.
Note. Antibody against the virus this season is not 100% robust and may be less successful in individuals whose immune structures are weakened by age or disease. The organization of seasonal flu antibodies is constantly changing.
Another justification for its inability may be the similarity of the infection in the immunizing strain to the circulating infection.
What is the difference between a flu infection and a flu condition?
Influenza-like illness (or flu-like illness) is caused by respiratory infections that occur especially in winter. The latter option causes flu-like side effects, but to an undeniably less severe degree. In case you are unsure, an air test can be done.
