QUÉ SIGNIFICA FLU EN INGLÉS

Influenza

Influenza

La influenza, comúnmente conocida como "la gripe", es una enfermedad infecciosa de aves y mamíferos causada por virus ARN de la familia Orthomyxoviridae, el virus de la gripe. Los síntomas más comunes son escalofríos, fiebre, secreción nasal, dolor de garganta, dolores musculares, dolor de cabeza, tos, debilidad / fatiga y malestar general. A pesar de que a menudo se confunde con otras enfermedades similares a la gripe, especialmente el resfriado común, la gripe es una enfermedad más grave causada por un tipo diferente de virus. La gripe puede producir náuseas y vómitos, especialmente en los niños, pero estos síntomas son más comunes en la gastroenteritis no relacionada, que a veces se denomina incorrectamente como "gripe estomacal" o "gripe de 24 horas". [3] Típicamente, la gripe se transmite a través del aire por tos o estornudos, creando aerosoles que contienen el virus. La influenza también puede transmitirse por contacto directo con excrementos de aves o secreciones nasales, o por contacto con superficies contaminadas. Los aerosoles aerotransportados se han pensado para causar la mayoría de las infecciones, aunque el medio de transmisión es lo más importante no está absolutamente claro. Los virus de la influenza pueden ser inactivados por la luz solar, desinfectantes y detergentes.

Influenza, commonly known as "the flu", is an infectious disease of birds and mammals caused by RNA viruses of the family Orthomyxoviridae, the influenza viruses. The most common symptoms are chills, fever, runny nose, sore throat, muscle pains, headache, coughing, weakness/fatigue and general discomfort. Although it is often confused with other influenza-like illnesses, especially the common cold, influenza is a more severe disease caused by a different type of virus.[1] Influenza may produce nausea and vomiting, particularly in children,[2] but these symptoms are more common in the unrelated gastroenteritis, which is sometimes inaccurately referred to as "stomach flu" or "24-hour flu".[3] Typically, influenza is transmitted through the air by coughs or sneezes, creating aerosols containing the virus. Influenza can also be transmitted by direct contact with bird droppings or nasal secretions, or through contact with contaminated surfaces. Airborne aerosols have been thought to cause most infections, although which means of transmission is most important is not absolutely clear.[4] Influenza viruses can be inactivated by sunlight, disinfectants and detergents.

Take charge of hidden, sneaky sources of chronic inflammation that can trigger illness and disease by wearing comfortable shoes daily, getting an annual flu vaccine, and asking your doctor why you're not on a statin and baby aspirin if you're over the age of forty.

Zygmunt Bauman

Civilisation, the orderly world in which we live, is frail. We are skating on thin ice. There is a fear of a collective disaster. Terrorism, genocide, flu, tsunamis.

Seth Berkley

Now, you might think of flu as just a really bad cold, but it can be a death sentence. Every year, 36,000 people in the United States die of seasonal flu. In the developing world, the data is much sketchier, but the death toll is almost certainly higher.

Since 2001, people have been scared. There's been some really scary stuff that's been happening - 9/11, Iraq, Afghanistan, Katrina, anthrax letters, D.C. sniper, global warming, global financial meltdown, bird flu, swine flu, SARS. I think people really feel like the system's breaking down.

6

Warren Buffett

In the 20th century, the United States endured two world wars and other traumatic and expensive military conflicts; the Depression; a dozen or so recessions and financial panics; oil shocks; a flu epidemic; and the resignation of a disgraced president. Yet the Dow rose from 66 to 11,497.

Michael Burgess

With the absence of a flu vaccination last year, I did not take a flu shot; but there is still some immunity that carries over from year to year; but about every 30 years, there is a major change in the genetics of the flu virus.

8

Michael Burgess

To be able to detect the outbreak of avian flu anywhere in the world is going to require a partnership of several countries that will share information and samples, but it is important to remember a threat anywhere is a threat everywhere.

9

Margaret Chan

New diseases like SARS and bird flu cause anxiety in the community. People get worried, some to the extent that it even affects their health. You feel very sad, and yet you must carry on and maintain your cool in very trying and difficult moments. You have to tough it out.

10

Georgina Chapman

I didn't finish my dress until about three days before my wedding - I had the flu and was stitching it from my bed. And the tulle came back from India all brown. We had to wash it for hours, but that didn't dissuade me from wearing it.
