Swine flu, officially known as H1N1 influenza, is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses that typically infect pigs but can also spread to humans. Understanding how swine flu spreads, 어떻게 진단되는가, and how to prevent it is essential for protecting public health—especially during seasonal outbreaks.
Swine flu is an influenza A virus subtype (H1N1) that first gained global attention during the 2009 pandemic. 그때부터, it has continued to circulate as a seasonal flu strain.
It commonly causes respiratory symptoms similar to typical influenza but may be more severe in children, older adults, pregnant women, and people with weak immune systems.
Swine flu spreads from person to person, primarily through:
Respiratory droplets from coughing or sneezing
Touching contaminated surfaces
Close contact in crowded environments
Early detection and hygiene practices are crucial to reducing transmission.
Swine flu symptoms resemble regular flu symptoms, 포함:
발열
기침
목 쓰림
몸살
두통
피로
콧물이나 코 막힘
일부 경우에, vomiting or diarrhea
Seek medical care immediately if symptoms worsen or breathing difficulties occur.
Accurate diagnosis is essential for proper treatment. Healthcare providers typically collect respiratory specimens using:
ㅏ 비강 면봉 is inserted into the nostril to collect mucus from the upper respiratory tract. This is one of the most common and painless specimen collection methods for H1N1 detection.
ㅏ nasal wash or nasal aspirate involves flushing or suctioning fluid from the nasal cavity to obtain samples. These methods may provide higher viral loads for testing and are commonly used in hospital settings.
These specimens are then tested using molecular diagnostic techniques such as RT-PCR, the gold standard for influenza detection.
