albeit in a new version. First described in April 2009, the virus appeared to be a new strain of H1N1 which resulted when a previous triplereassortment of bird, swine and human flu viruses further
The emergence of new highly pathogenic and drug-resistant influenza strains urges the development of novel therapeutics for influenza A virus (IAV). Here, we report the discovery of an anti-IAV microbial metabolite called APL-16-5 that was originally iso

You can get flu at any time of the year, but it is more common during the winter season. Because of this, it is sometimes referred to as seasonal flu. In the UK, a flu vaccination programme is provided by the NHS each year that runs during the autumn (see below for more information...

This article provides short-term guidance for preventing outbreaks caused by the new Influenza A (H1N1) virus. At present, evidence suggests that the main route of human-to-human transmission of the new Influenza A (H1N1) virus is via respiratory droplets, which are expelled by speaking, sneezi...
▼Zanamivir (Relenza - GlaxoWellcome) is a new inhaled antiviral treatment, licensed for use in people aged 12 years and over who present with symptoms of influenza, when the virus is circulating in the community. The manufacturer claims that treatment with zanamivir "reduces the duration of flu...

It was unexpected, therefore, that we observed increased direct contact transmission (infecting 9/9 direct contacts), but not airborne transmission (infecting 0/9 airborne contacts) when we introduced the NA and M segments from the H1N1pdm09 virus, A/Tennessee/1-560/2009 (TN/09), into A/...
Influenza viruses cause a significant number of infections and deaths annually. In addition to seasonal infections, the risk of an influenza virus pandemic emerging is extremely high owing to the large reservoir of diverse influenza viruses found in animals and the co-circulation of many influenza su...
