Flu Prevention & Treatment
You might succeed in many cases to prevent the flu by getting vaccinated against influenza with a flu vacine. However, the flu vacine usually works for a year and only for a few certain flu types. The contents of the vaccine is improved every year by the World Health Organization, due to the changes in the flu content. The flu vaccine is recommended for every-one, and strongly recommanded for any-one who would likely to suffer from complications by influenza. The vaccine is available as aspray and as injectable vaccine.
Some people sometimes think that after you get vaccinated you won't catch the flu, but this is not the case. The vaccine getsformulated every season for specific flu strains and it can't include all the different strains actively infecting people all over the world, so the vaccine is made for specific common strains. So if you catch the flu after you get vaccinated it is a sign that you catch a virus that wasn't included in the vaccine. Also, after the new vaccine is discovered it takes almost six months to manufacture and deliver it to millions all over the world.
The vaccine might cause the immune system to act like the body is actually infected by flu, and some of the flu symproms may appear, but they won't be for as long and as strong like they would be when getting infected by the flu.
If you get the flu, there is no magic medicine to heal you but there is a treatment which will help you to overcome the flue much easier. First you must get plenty of rest and drink a lot of liquids, your body is fighting the flu and needs all the strength you can save. The water is neccessary in order to avoid dehydration. Another important thing is to avoid using alcohol and tobacco.
You can take medications such paracetamol to bring down fever under the instructions of a physician.
Influenza is common also in pigs and birds and some other animals. in areas where there are high concentrations of humans and animals like pigs and birds(Like parts of Asia) the infection is more common because new strains of flu are created by these species strains.
IMPORTANT: All drugs, even those available over the counter, should not be taken without a doctor's advice.
