The flu state is an illness which is not necessarily due to the influenza virus but also to other respiratory viruses which are particularly virulent during the autumn and winter period . Like all viruses, they are very easily spread. Simple contact with a “contaminated” object or hand, for example, can be enough to transmit the virus. Likewise, the saliva and nasal secretions of a sick person are very rich in viruses. It is enough therefore that it sputters or sneezes near another person so that this one could potentially be infected.
The flu state generally occurs during the change of season at the approach of winter, it is a serious cold of mainly viral origin (para influenza virus, adenovirus or coronavirus).
Symptoms of influenza are very similar to those of influenza or other acute viral infectious diseases:
Although the effects felt are stronger than with a cold, they are less severe than with a real flu and usually only last a few days . Certain natural means are however very effective in reducing the symptoms linked to the flu state.
