Diagnostic tests for detection of influenza viruses in respiratory specimens include molecular assays and antigen tests
Influenza infection cycle starts internally with glycoproteins Hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA).
Molecular Virology gives the advancements in molecular influenza virology to quantify antigenic differences.
Influenza virus reacts differently, if seasonal people may recover but epidemic and pandemic result to life threatening.
Influenza surveillance rely on data from domestic and international public health partners to monitor seasonal Influenza
Immunology refers immunity against the pathogen built up in the targeted area. Antibodies has protection ability.
Influenza virus genome had all genes that make up the virus. They change in two ways antigenic shift and antigenic drift
Influenza Vaccines are also known as flu shots or flu jabs which protects against infection and they prevent viruses.
Avian Influenza is one of the most important diseases worldwide. They occur in animals and poultry.
They are influenza like viruses includes Influenza A virus, Parainfluenza virus, Corona virus, Adeno virus.
