How influenza is infected?
All over the world, approximately 70% of the number of illness infectious diseases falls Influenza. And the thing is that the flu virus has the ability to quickly involve a large number of people in the infectious process. Such a phenomenon is called a pandemic. Doctors state that the virus is very contagious, that is, simple words - contagious. From sick people viruses fast «Cross» on absolutely healthy. Therefore, every year the flu epidemic is marked, it usually happens at the end of winter or early spring. And exacerbates all the fact that representatives of the virus A, B are able to change, generating a large number of variations of their fellow. Each new variation that appeared is unique, so our immune system first have to encounter unfamiliar to her «stranger». Those viruses that caused the disease in previous seasons are recognized by our «Guards order» Pretty easily and fast, after which they are immediately blocked. Can be infected any, regardless of age. But most of all cases first meet in children's teams or in older people. It is understandable - they have a weaker immune response. As soon as a person gets his influenza, he immediately becomes a source of infection for the people around him - loved ones, colleagues in work, classmates, neighbors, satellites in transport ... Even if the symptoms of a person are expressed weakly, the so-called hidden form of illness, he can infect everyone to contact him. Dangerous viruses are transmitted through air flows. The largest number of pathogenic viruses is contained in microscopic wets of sputum, saliva, which inevitably come out with friction, sneezing, conversation, cough. The virus is very comfortable in the nasopharynk, the nose, the fuck, it perfectly multiplies in the upper and medium respiratory tract. Once on the mucous membranes of a person, first the virus tries to stick to the epithelial cells of the respiratory tract, and only then it is introduced directly inside of these cells. And as soon as the virus is managed to penetrate inside, so it releases its ribonucleic acids (this is a genetic material), so the process of reproduction launches. In one infected human cell, a million copies of the virus cells can appear very quickly! The emerging virus cells quickly infect other cells of the body. And with the help of a special enzyme, viral cells can recognize precisely very healthy human cells to escape exactly there. So, in a matter of hours after entering the body, the virus causally captures in its power all the respiratory tract. If the virus begins to reproduce in the epithelial cells of the alveoli light man, the disease occurs hard, can end with a fatal outcome. And if the virus is able to spread to other organs, then complications begin, for example, meningitis, encephalitis, myocarditis ... When it was possible to establish the mechanisms of infection of people with the flu virus, then pharmacologists began to create drugs capable of protecting the population from mass infection in the outbreaks season and epidemics. One of these drugs is oxoline ointment.
