Influenza is a highly contagious acute respiratory infection caused by Influenza Virus A and B. Being a droplet infection, influenza is transmitted from human to human through exposure to the virus-containing respiratory secretions-large droplets produced during coughing and sneezing. Moreover, close contact with the influenza patient and contact with contaminated surfaces remains the other potential sources of disease acquisition. Often influenza occurs as a seasonal outbreak and is endemic, especially during winter hitting millions globally. Browse our latest inventory of influenza panels and place your order today.
