Overview
Influenza, widely known as the flu, is a common illness that can be especially deadly when potent strains of the virus arise. Although breakthroughs have unlocked genome information about the virus, influenza poses challenges to researchers because the virus is constantly mutating. Influenza, Second Edition looks at the disease and at prevention and treatment options. This revised edition includes a chapter on recent outbreaks of avian flu, as well as information on rapid diagnostic testing and vaccination technology.Book Details
