Influenza is a disease of global public health significance as evidenced by the 2009 pandemic caused by a novel swine-origin H1N1 virus. Influenza epidemics occur almost every year and are less striking, but nevertheless, account for considerable morbidity and school absences among healthy children and adolescents. Patients with chronic conditions may develop severe illness. This article discusses the epidemiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and management of influenza. Vaccination is the most effective measure available for the control of influenza. Recommendations for use of the inactivated and live attenuated vaccines against seasonal influenza and against the 2009 novel H1N1 influenza viruses are reviewed.
流感是一种具有全球公共卫生意义的疾病，2009年由新型猪源H1N1病毒引起的大流行就证明了这一点。流感流行几乎每年都会发生，且影响较小，但仍会导致健康儿童和青少年出现相当高的发病率和缺课情况。慢性病患者可能会发展为重症。本文讨论了流感的流行病学、临床表现、诊断和管理。接种疫苗是控制流感最有效的措施。本文综述了针对季节性流感和2009年新型H1N1流感病毒使用灭活疫苗和减毒活疫苗的建议。
