Summary:Influenza - is an acute viral infection, transmitted by droplet contact. Influenza virus is characterized by its ability to provoke yearly seasonal epidemics, which have great influence on all age populations and are a significant problem for the public health care. This disease can lead to development of severe complications, especially in infants. There are two methods of influenza prophylaxis - specific (vaccination) and non-specific (immunotropic agents).
