Researcher have indicated that the uptake rates of annual influenza uptake is effected by several factors‚ such as locational setting of vaccination availability (Lu 2014)‚ the cost of administering vaccine (Wada 2013) and the perceived vulnerability for the age groups (Wu 2013). Many of these factors also can be perceived as barriers that impact the vaccine uptake rates. Although these barriers here contribute to low annual uptake of influenza vaccine in adults‚ public health officials can minimize

researchers and how society‚ particularly medical and political leaders respond to pandemic diseases. Influenza is a unique respiratory viral disease infecting the whole respiratory tract-namely‚ the nose‚ sinuses‚ the throat‚ lungs‚ and even the middle ear. The disease spreads from person to person by airborne droplets produced when an infected individual coughs or sneezes. Acute symptoms of influenza‚ including fever‚ headache‚ shivering‚ muscle pain‚ cough‚ and pneumonia‚ are the result of the virus

Grant Wade April 22‚ 2001 Influenza Influenza Influenza‚ also known as "the flu‚" is a virus that infects the respiratory tract. Although Influenza is not as severe as many viral infections it is almost the worst for viral infections of the respiratory tract. Typically‚ when someone is infected with influenza they experience fever (usually 100° to 103°F in adults‚ but even higher in children) and causes a cough‚ sore throat‚ runny or stuffy nose‚ and also headaches‚ muscle aches‚ and usually

The Influenza virus kills about 36‚000 people a year. The Influenza virus is a potentially deadly virus that attacks the respiratory system. It also leaves the human body very tired and weak. The Influenza virus mostly affects the respiratory system. The basic structure of the Influenza virus includes the Viral Envelope‚ Nucleoprotein (RNA)‚ Neuraminidase (Sialidase)‚ Hemagglutinin‚ and the Capsid. When the virus attacks the respiratory system‚ it causes fatigue‚ fevers‚ and chills. Ironically

Communicable Diseases – Avian Influenza Although it is extremely rare that viruses transfer from the animal population to humans‚ there is evidence that it can happen. The avian influenza virus mainly affects the bird population but has been found in the human population as well. With the increasing outbreaks of avian influenza in birds‚ it is possible that the rate of human involvement will also continue to grow. Because of the potential risk to humans‚ it is important for the public to understand

Avian Influenza‚ also known as the bird flu‚ is a virus that primarily infects birds. In rare cases‚ can this virus affect humans in a way that is harmful. There are three forms of the Avian Influenza which are: H5‚ H7‚ and H9 viruses. The H5 virus has circulated Asia and the Middle East in about 16 different countries worldwide. It mostly affected these countries because they have this bird species within range of human contact. The H7 virus is a type that is very uncommon in humans‚ unless they
