Influenza (commonly known as "flu") is a contagious, acute respiratory infection. The disease is easily transmitted by coughing and sneezing. Outbreaks of influenza occur every year in autumn and winter. Type A viruses are usually more common than type B viruses and are associated with the most serious influenza epidemics, while type B infections are usually milder.
