Influenza

Transcript: Basic Facts INFLUENZA Most experts believe that flu viruses spread mainly by droplets made when people with flu cough, sneeze or talk. These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby. Less often, a person might also get flu by touching a surface or object that has flu virus on it and then touching their own mouth, eyes or possibly their nose. Just wait a Sec ... Pathology . an acute, commonly epidemic disease, occurring in several forms, caused by numerous rapidly mutating viral strains and characterized by respiratory symptoms and general prostration. Basically known as the flu. Get vaccinated Pay attention because TRUST & BELIEVE you don't want it ! Now here's how to prevent it --> Influenza is a highly contagious disease that is spread by coughing, sneezing and through direct physical contact with objects that carry the virus such as doorknobs and telephones. Symptoms include fever, extreme fatigue, and headaches; about 50 percent of infected people have no symptoms but are still contagious Influenza is the sixth leading cause of death among American adults. Each year, about 36,000 people die from influenza, and 114,000 people are hospitalized. Immunization is 70-90 percent effective in preventing influenza in health people under the age of 65. he influenza vaccine cannot cause influenza. New variants of influenza arise each year and therefore a new vaccine must be made and given each year. Presented By: Latrenda McCurry :) What Is it ?? Cough Runny/Stuffy nose Muscle of Bodyaches Some might even have vomitting or possibly Diarrhea (which is more common for children than adults) bacterial pneumonia, ear infections, sinus infections, dehydration, and worsening of chronic medical conditions, such as congestive heart failure, asthma, or diabetes Still clueless ?? Watch this . What is it ? Definition: Simple to catch huh ? Other Symptoms & Complications Explaining How The Flu Spreads Influenza The single best way to prevent the flu is to get a flu vaccine every season. There are two types of flu vaccines: “Flu shots” — inactivated vaccines (containing killed virus) that are given with a needle. There are three flu shots being produced for the United States market now. -The regular seasonal flu shot is “intramuscular” which means it is injected into muscle (usually in the upper arm). It has been used for decades and is approved for use in people 6 months of age and older, including healthy people, people with chronic medical conditions and pregnant women. Regular flu shots make up the bulk of the vaccine supply produced for the United States. The nasal-spray flu vaccine — a vaccine made with live, weakened flu viruses that is given as a nasal spray (sometimes called LAIV for “Live Attenuated Influenza Vaccine”). The viruses in the nasal spray vaccine do not cause the flu. LAIV is approved for use in healthy* people 2 to 49 years of age who are not pregnant. About two weeks after vaccination, antibodies develop that protect against influenza virus infection. Flu vaccines will not protect against flu-like illnesses caused by non-influenza viruses. The seasonal flu vaccine protects against the three influenza viruses that research suggests will be most common. Want to know more symptoms ? How does it Spread?

Scientists believe that flu pandemics happen about 2 or 3 times a century. Pigs can become infected with influenza strains that can infect three different species; pigs, birds and humans. The Influenza virus is ranked the sixth leading cause of death among Americans. If Infected, You Will Need To: Most people with Influenza doesn't need special medicine or treatment. Fever over 100 degrees Fahrenheit or feeling chills Aching muscles, commonly in the back, arms, or legs Headache Dry cough Fatigue(general feeling of sickness) and weakness Loss of appetite Nasal congestion Runny nose dry or sore throat By: Jessica Huynh Veronica Astorga P. 1 The Flu Symptoms/ How it is Diagnosed rest drink a lot of fluids stay home eat a lighter diet Take some acetaminophen (for example, like Tylenol®) to reduce your fever temperature and to relieve muscle pain. The Prognosis for the Patient The Future of This Disease: The influenza is diagnosed by the appearance of specific signs and symptoms of the influenza. It can be confirmed through laboratory testing of throat specimens or blood samples. Pictures How the Influenza Virus Can Be Treated: People who have influenza recover completely within one or two weeks, but for other people, it can develop life-treating problems, like cardiac complications, Reye's syndrome, and Gullain Barre Syndrome.

INFLUENZA

Transcript: FACTS SYMPTOMS Influenza, commonly referred to as the flu, is an infectious disease caused by RNA viruses. Typically, influenza is transmitted through the air by coughs or sneezes, creating aerosols containing the virus. Influenza can also be transmitted by direct contact with bird droppings or nasal secretions, or through contact with contaminated surfaces. Airborne aerosols have been thought to cause most infections, although which means of transmission is most important is not absolutely clear. Influenza viruses can be inactivated by sunlight, disinfectants and detergents. As the virus can be inactivated by soap, frequent hand washing reduces the risk of infection. Influenza spreads around the world in seasonal epidemics, resulting in the deaths of between 250,000 and 500,000 people every year up to millions in some pandemic years. On average 41,400 people died each year in the United States between 1979 and 2001 from influenza. In 2010 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the United States changed the way it reports the 30 year estimates for deaths. Now they are reported as a range from a low of about 3,300 deaths to a high of 49,000 per year Fever and extreme coldness (chills shivering, shaking (rigor)) Cough Nasal congestion Body aches, (especially joints and throat) Fatigue Headache Irritated, watering eyes Reddened eyes, skin (especially face), mouth, throat and nose Rash PICTURES INFLUENZA Destiny Robbins

Transcript: Discrimination against the disabled Fatigue muscle aches throat irritation, fever Fatigue muscle aches throat irritation, fever sneezing Watery eyes runny nose how can influenza be threatened Other Names For Influenza •Influenza A usually arrives between early winter and early spring. •Influenza B can appear at any time of the year. Influenza viruses spread in tiny liquid caused by coughing and sneezing. They spread from person to person. Sometimes people become infected by touching something that was recently touched with the virus and then touching their mouth or nose. Most adults may be able to infect others beginning one day before they show symptoms and up to five days after becoming sick. How Influenza Is Spreaded Influenza A; Influenza B Influenza viruses spread through the air, most often when an infected person sneezes, coughs, or speaks. Influenza is highly contagious and is easily spread from person to person by droplets from the nose or throat of an infected person. Influenza can be prevented by annual vaccination it is recomended for the folloing people •Adults and children with chronic heart or lung disease. •People of any age who are residents of nursing homes and other chronic care facilities. •People over the age of 65 years. •People with chronic conditions such as diabetes, cancer, and kidney disease Influenza A & Influenza B Symptoms Of Influenza Statistics about DMD IT only happends to male people. how Influenza can be prevented Flu is caused by a virus in the body. It spreads when infected persons cough, sneeze, or even talk around others. You can get the flu simply by touching a surface like a telephone or doorknob that has been contaminated by a touch from someone who has the flu. The viruses can pass through the air and enter your body through your nose or mouth. If you have touched a contaminated surface, they can pass from your hand to your nose or mouth.

It then establishes itself within the lungs and the respiratory tract. The respiratory tract then becomes the main target for infections, especially for respiratory bacterial infections. Immunosuppression then occurs rendering the immune system to become temporarily deficient. Influenza virus can infect different cells in the upper and lower respiratory tracts influenza particles magnified 265,000x Pattern and Growth Influenza virus invades across the epithelial surfaces of the respiratory tract.

Influenza

Transcript: Influenza Influenza is a virus. Influenza affects humans and animals. Symptoms for Influnza include: -Coughing -Sore Throat -Runny or Stuffy Nose -Muscle or Body Aches -Headaches -Fatigue -Chills -Vomiting -Diarrhea Influnza is not fatal There are detection tests for influenza. There is a shot that helps prevent influenza. This is commonly known as a flu shot. The best way to avoid the flu is to get the yearly flu shot. Some other ways that can help stop the spread of the flu are: -Wash your hands regularly -Avoid close contact with others -Don't touch your eyes, nose, or mouth -Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze There currently is no cure for influenza. However, you can treat the symptoms of the disease. You can treat the symptoms of influenza by getting lots of bed rest and drinking plenty of fluids. Taking medicine for headaches and muscle aches also can help make you feel better. The flu lasts around five days before the symptoms reside. The 1918 Influenza Pandemic It was World War 1 and Germany had just sent a massive amount of troops to Britain and France in a surprise attack. They were overwhelmed with the attack, and desperatly asked American troops for backup. America did come help them with plenty of weapons, but they had actually brought one weapon thay didn't even know they had. The Spanish flu. This disease would eventually spread across Europe and America, killing more people than the war itslelf. It went like this. Troops became infected with the Spanish flu while fighting in the war. Then they returned home, and infected everyone there. Over forty million people were killed. Citations Formal: N/A. Centers For Disease Control and Prevention. Last Revised January 6, 2012.

Influenza Influenza viruse

Transcript: Influenza is totally different from cold. Symptoms begin with chills, high fever, headache, muscle pain. After those early symptoms,nasal discharge,nasal congestion, cough, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea will show up. Influenza usually underlying 1 to 2 days. However, the maximum days of underlying is up 7days. The statistic and interesting of influenza is that infecting speed and early symptom occurs are really quick comparing with other disease. Also influenza virus goes out from body really quick comparing with other disease too. Influenza is most common in China. It infect to people who have weak immunity which are example of children or older people. Influenza do not have exactly data of where did it start. However, it started BC 412 years in Hippocrates and Rivi. Refrences Influenza and Influenza virus Miumi Watanabe Block 4 Influenza will infected by droplet infection.It usually infect to respiratory tract. However, it will infect through hands of people sometimes. There are 3 to 5 million people are getting infected and 250 to 500 thousand people are dieing because of influenza. There are many ways of treatment or cure. However, the famous ones that are using nowadays are drip antibiotics, control value of body water, intake of nutrition etc...
