PIH: The flu is more aggressive this year, there are serious cases. It peaks in

Public health experts say that unlike the past two years, the most serious cases are currently those affected by the flu, which this year seems even more aggressive after the Covid-19 virus.

With the beginning of winter, the flu has officially entered Albania.

Since October, when the AH1 subtype virus was detected, the first ten days of December have marked a slight increase in the number of those affected throughout the country.

Official sources from the Institute of Public Health say that the increase in cases is slight, but we are officially in flu season.

" From the tested cases, the circulation in our country of two subtypes of the influenza A virus, AH1 and AH3, is confirmed. The Covid virus also circulates in the air, but we are still in a normal situation" , say the sources at ISHP.

" The most severe symptoms today are those affected by the flu. Temperature up to 39, sore throat, body aches up to and pneumonia. While the cases with covid are for the most part without fever.

The number of days of stay in cases of flu infection is up to 7 days, unlike Covid where the quarantine is 3-5 days. Therefore, care should be taken about the flu ", say public health experts.

Even primary care doctors in Tirana say that the most frequent cases that present themselves for medical help are those affected by the flu, while covid usually passes more easily.

Based on the information transmitted from the region and beyond, it is learned that the flu virus has covered almost all of Europe. According to the information at ISHP, the strain that is circulating in the region today is the same, type A virus. Official sources say that the peak of flu infections is likely to arrive in January, as a result of the drop in temperatures.

Experts advise especially chronic patients, tumor patients, HIV patients, allergic patients, children and the elderly to increase their health care, as the end of the year holidays increase the risk of infections. 

" We have a slight increase, but with the approach of the major holidays at the end of the year, the risk for more frequent circulation of the flu within the country increases, as a result of entry and exit ."

Doctors advise to increase the consumption of juices, citrus fruits and vegetables during this period, to increase the consumption of vitamins, as well as to take measures for isolation at home in case of infection in order not to spread the virus to others./ SI
