About Influenza prevention.

Influenza prevention refers to active immunization or chemoprophylaxis aimed at deterring acute respiratory infection caused by influenza viruses, primarily types A and B.

The infection targets the respiratory tract epithelium across general and vulnerable populations, including young children, older adults, and individuals with chronic comorbid conditions.

Pathophysiologically, preventive measures aim to block viral attachment, cellular invasion, or replication in the respiratory mucosa, thereby preventing acute mucosal inflammation and associated systemic manifestations such as high fever, myalgia, severe cough, secondary bacterial pneumonia, and respiratory failure.
