Notes
Influenza is an acute and highly contagious disease caused by a
filterable virus. Since it resembles many common respiratory ailments,
it is usually difficult to diagnose in absence of an epidemic. Although
sporadic cases do occur, epidemics of influenza, sometimes worldwide in
scope, can affect a large population. For example, in 1918, more than
20 million people were hit by influenza.
