Whether infected by A, B or COVID-19, it is possible to cause "white lung". Every year, there are also patients with large white lung who live in ICU due to influenza virus infection, and the incidence rate is not high.
The "white lung" caused by influenza is common in the elderly, children, pregnant women, and high-risk groups with underlying diseases. Influenza is a self limiting disease, and if the patient has a weakened immune system, is older, or has a serious underlying disease infection, there is a possibility of causing influenza pneumonia.
Flow B is a kind of influenza caused by influenza B virus, which is infectious. It is mainly transmitted through droplets in the air, contact between people or contact with contaminated goods. Therefore, pneumonia caused by flow B is also infectious.
In daily life, we should first reduce cross infection!
1. Wear a mask properly
It was just mentioned that influenza virus is a respiratory virus. Like COVID-19, sneezing, coughing and other droplets are its main transmission routes, so you must wear a mask!
2. Wash hands frequently
Washing hands is the best prevention! Not only should children wash their hands frequently, but family members should also wash them together.
3. Disinfection
Indirect contact with mucous membranes such as the oral cavity, nasal cavity, and eyes, or contact with contaminated items, can also lead to the transmission of viruses. Therefore, it is necessary to disinfect things that children often come into contact with, and regularly open windows for ventilation at home.
Not only children, adults should also do the above three things well! Parents are usually carriers of the virus, and adults with low immunity can also be infected!
4. Getting vaccinated
It is the most economical and effective means to prevent H1N1 influenza.
03 Summary
Influenza B should be detected, reported, isolated, treated early, and the source of infection should be controlled. At the same time, it is necessary to cut off the transmission channels. During the epidemic, gatherings or collective entertainment activities should be avoided, and elderly, young, sick, disabled and susceptible people should go less to public places and take protective measures
