In the midst of war, on January 1918 the world was shook by a natural disaster like no other that would last three years and kill nearly five percent of the world’s current population of that time. This was one of the major pandemics of the Influenza virus that has impacted modern society since its discovery by Richard Scope in 1931. The Influenza is a communicable disease that affects the muscular, lymphatic, but mainly the respiratory system of the body.
“Le Flu” is an airborne virus that thrives from November to March when the air is dryer, attaching itself to warmer air molecules that land on surfaces when they fall where the virus can live for long periods of time before being attained by means of human interaction. Once a person contracts the virus it becomes highly contagious; making it extremely easy to be spread through physical contact, especially in places of high population i.e. schools, offices, and heavily used public transit systems.
Majority cases of Influenza deal with symptoms that include sore throat, runny nose, muscle or body aches, headaches, coughing, and fatigue all of which can be cured or treated by inexpensive over the counter (OTC) medicines such as cough syrup, antihistamines, and pain relievers, or you can avoid the virus and its symptoms all together by getting acquiring the yearly vaccine which introduces your body to the virus so your immune system can be alert and ready to combat the new seasons strand of the influenza virus and its spread throughout the world.
