Influenza: The Hidden Enemy in the Winter Winds
Influenza: The Hidden Enemy in the Winter Winds
During the rainy and winter seasons, influenza (Flu) is one of the diseases that can spread easily and rapidly, especially among children whose immune systems are not strong enough. When school begins, the chances of contracting the virus increase even more. Influenza not only makes you feel unwell but can also lead to severe complications.
Main Cause of Influenza
The influenza virus spreads effectively during the rainy and winter seasons. It is a virus that spreads from person to person, causing an acute respiratory infection through droplets from saliva, snot, and phlegm via coughing and sneezing. Touching contaminated surfaces or being in close contact with an infected person also contributes to the rapid spread of influenza. Children, especially in schools and places where large groups gather, are prime locations for spreading the virus.
Symptoms of Influenza in Children
- Cough, high fever, stuffy nose, and clear snot for 1-2 weeks
- Headache, fatigue, loss of appetite
- Possible vomiting or diarrhea
- In severe cases, it may lead to hospitalization due to complications such as pneumonia
How to Prevent Influenza in Children
- Washing hands regularly with soap and water
- Avoid close contact with infected individuals
- Avoid touching the eyes, nose, and mouth
- Get the flu vaccine every year
Even after receiving the flu vaccine, there is still a chance of contracting the virus, but the body will start developing immunity within 2 weeks of vaccination. As you can see, influenza is closer to us than we think and is a disease that can be contracted in everyday life. The more we understand the disease, the quicker we can protect our little one’s health. Whether it’s rainy or cold, you can take care of your loved ones every day with
