Abstract:

Influenza is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by influenza viruses,which occurs frequently in spring and autumn. Because of the gene variations and unpredictable recombination of influenza viruses,it is easy to mutate to produce a new type of influenza virus variant. In addition,avian influenza viruses(AIV) frequently infect human directly from poultry cross species,even have caused a global pandemic,laying a hidden danger for human health and public health safety. In the recent years,much progress has been made in the research of influenza viruses. This review focuses on the etiology,clinical symptoms and mode of transmission,pathogenic mechanism,detection methods and treatment plan of influenza viruses.

Key words: Influenza virus, Etiology, Clinical symptom and mode of transmission, Pathogenic mechanism, Detection method, Treatment plan
