What is influenza?

Influenza, commonly called the flu, is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. It affects the nose, throat, and sometimes the lungs, leading to symptoms like fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, fatigue, and sometimes vomiting or diarrhea. The flu spreads mainly through droplets when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks, and it can lead to serious complications, especially in young children, older adults, or people with weakened immune systems.
