Influenza PowerPoint Template Content

Influenza definition

• Influenza viruses are the viruses that cause the flu, which is contagious and infects the respiratory tract.

• Influenza viruses belong to the enveloped family Orthomyxoviridae. Their genome consists of segmented negative-sense single-stranded RNA segments.

Influenza types

• Comparative illustrations in flu PPT show three types of influenza infect humans: influenza A, influenza B and influenza C.
• Influenza C virus infections cause mild illness and are not thought to cause human epidemics.
• Influenza A and B are responsible for the seasonal flu, which is from September to April and they peak in it. Influenza B may cause symptoms other than flu, like nausea, diarrhea and vomiting.

Influenza transmission

• Influenza virus primarily infects the upper respiratory tract and may descend to the lower respiratory tract alveoli, the leading site for gas exchange, as illustrated by flu PPT animation.
• Influenza is mainly transmitted through the droplets and aerosols in the respiratory tract and can be transmitted by touching a contaminated surface.

Animated illustrations show the pathogenesis of influenza

• The pathogenesis of influenza is firstly the virus's contact with the respiratory tract, then it spreads through the cells, causing inflammation.
• There might be complications like sinus or ear infections, pneumonia and other secondary bacterial infections.
• The virulence factor of the influenza virus is hemagglutinin binding with sialic acid on cells.

Influenza symptoms PowerPoint Templates

• Influenza PowerPoint slides show insights into the symptoms of flu, including headache, runny nose, chills and fever.

Influenza preventive methods

• Prevention might be done by simply increasing our immunity by taking vitamins, sleeping well, exercising daily’ staying hydrated, decreasing alcohol intake, washing our hands regularly, avoiding close contact with infected individuals and visiting the doctor once we feel any flu symptoms.

Influenza characteristics of the influenza virus

• The most outstanding characteristic of influenza viruses is their rapid evolution, leading to their significant variability.
• Flu viruses mutate rapidly, so vaccines are updated twice a year.
• Animated illustrations explain that the virus might mutate due to antigenic drift and point mutation accumulation, leading to subtype drift. Or by reassortment, causing new subtypes to appear and this antigenic shift causes pandemics.
• A medical diagram is inserted in the Influenza PPT to display the genetic change of the virus with time.

Animated comparison between influenza vaccines

• A dynamic illustration in Influenza PPT shows that vaccines can be classified according to their valency by how many subtypes of virus they have, so trivalent influenza vaccines, for example, have two influenza subtypes and one influenza b subtype.
• Quadrivalent vaccines have two influenza subtypes and two influenza b subtypes.
• Medical infographics in Influenza PPT slides illustrate a dynamic comparison between Inactivated and Live attenuated vaccines.

Inactivated vaccines

• Inactivated vaccines are made using the killed version of the disease-causing germ. However, they usually do not provide as solid immunity as live vaccines.
• This means that you may require multiple doses or booster shots over time to keep protection against diseases.
• Inactivated vaccines are administered through subcutaneous injections and may cause severe side effects. Nevertheless, they are easier to store and preserve.

Live attenuated vaccines

• Live attenuated vaccines use a weakened or attenuated form of the virus that causes a particular disease.
• These vaccines are highly effective at preventing diseases because they create a strong and long-lasting immune response like natural infection.
• In most cases, just one or two doses of a live vaccine can provide lifelong protection. It is essential to store these vaccines in a cool place to ensure their effectiveness.
