Influenza viruses are usually classified into three types: Type A, Type B, and Type C (even if there is proof of a fourth Type D).<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><em>Type A viruses<\/em><\/strong><em>: they are the most common and can affect both humans and animals. Besides they are divided into subtypes because there are a great number of two glycoproteins pairs on their surface (capsid). The two glycoproteins pairs are the hemagglutinin-HA and the neuroaminidase-NA towards which<\/em> <em>body&#8217;s immune system defence are directed. Today 16 subtypes of HA and 9 of NA glycoproteins have been identified.\u00a0Besides t<\/em><em>hrough a mechanism of genetic recombination, the viruses process mutations in both HA protein gene and NA protein gene. The mutations are the cause of the pandemic . For example, in August 1918 the Spanish Flu H1N1, proving death particularly violent and lethal, killing 25 million people in 6 months.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><strong><em>Type B viruses<\/em><\/strong><em>: they are not the cause of pandemics and infect only the humans.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><strong><em>Type C viruses<\/em><\/strong><em>: they are not the cause of pandemics and involve asymptomatic infections similar to a cold.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">\u00a0The Symptoms and Diagnosis<\/h3>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em>The<strong> Symptoms <\/strong>attributable to the effects of the Flu: high fever, joint pains, muscle pains, sore throats, headaches but also gastrointestinal disorders. Infections are increased by air through saliva, sneezing and cough. The subjects most at risk are infants, elderly people and persons with chronic illness.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>diagnosis<\/strong> are not easy because there are many microorganisms that can cause symptoms similar to the Flu. Usually the doctors make a diagnosis based on clinical symptoms and on an objective examination taking into account the epidemiological progress of the infection.<\/p>\n<p>In order to be sure of the infection, the examination in a qualified <strong>laboratory for analysis<\/strong> can be used to confirm or exclude the flu. Therefore more appropriate therapies can be used by limiting the use of antibiotics.<\/p>\n<p>Source Influnet bulletin\u00a0 : https:\/\/old.iss.it\/site\/RMI\/influnet\/pagine\/rapportoInflunet.aspx<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-7552 alignleft\" style=\"font-family: Lora, serif;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.visitapp.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/vapp-300x129.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"64\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.visitapp.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/vapp-300x129.png 300w, https:\/\/www.visitapp.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/vapp.png 608w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\"><a style=\"line-height: 1.5;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.visitapp.biz\"><span style=\"font-family: Lora, serif;\">www.visitapp.biz<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>[vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Watch now the Video Presentation of the App intended to revolutionize the world of medical bookings in private clinics!&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|text_align:center&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;]<style type=\"text\/css\" >#rand_erlka74ammpcdb8wnfbg{border:1px solid #ecf0f1; background:#ffffff; }#rand_erlka74ammpcdb8wnfbg .icon_circle{border:1px solid #ecf0f1; background:#ffffff; color:#0e76bc;}#rand_erlka74ammpcdb8wnfbg .icon_sub_ctn{border:1px solid #ecf0f1; background:#ffffff; }<\/style> <style type='text\/css'> @font-face{font-family: 'ba'; src:url('https:\/\/www.visitapp.biz\/wp-content\/themes\/thefox\/includes\/4k-icons\/icons\/4k-icons-pack01\/icons\/fonts\/ba.eot'); src:url('https:\/\/www.visitapp.biz\/wp-content\/themes\/thefox\/includes\/4k-icons\/icons\/4k-icons-pack01\/icons\/fonts\/ba.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), url('https:\/\/www.visitapp.biz\/wp-content\/themes\/thefox\/includes\/4k-icons\/icons\/4k-icons-pack01\/icons\/fonts\/ba.woff') format('woff'), url('https:\/\/www.visitapp.biz\/wp-content\/themes\/thefox\/includes\/4k-icons\/icons\/4k-icons-pack01\/icons\/fonts\/ba.ttf') format('truetype'), url('https:\/\/www.visitapp.biz\/wp-content\/themes\/thefox\/includes\/4k-icons\/icons\/4k-icons-pack01\/icons\/fonts\/ba.svg#oi') format('svg'); font-weight: normal; font-style: normal;}#rand_erlka74ammpcdb8wnfbg .ba-heart18:before{font-family: 'ba'; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal;}#rand_erlka74ammpcdb8wnfbg .ba-heart18:before{content: \"\\e89c\";}<\/style>\n<div id=\"rand_erlka74ammpcdb8wnfbg\" class=\"icon_box2_st \"><div class=\"icon_circle\"><div class=\"icon_sub_ctn\"><i class=\"ba-heart18\" ><\/i><\/div><\/div><h3 style=\"color:;\" ><\/h3><p style=\"color:;\" ><\/p><\/div>[vc_video link=&#8221;https:\/\/vimeo.com\/251816672&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Italian Health Institute ISS (Istituto Superiore di Sanit\u00e0) collect data on the flu through the Influnet bulletin and thank the aid of Family Doctors, Pediatricians and Regional Laboratories.
