Swine Influenza
Swine Influenza, commonly known as swine flu, is a respiratory disease caused by influenza viruses that primarily infect pigs. It can spread to humans, leading to symptoms similar to those of seasonal flu, such as fever, cough, and body aches. The virus is transmitted through direct contact with infected pigs or contaminated surfaces.
While swine flu outbreaks in pigs are common, human cases are relatively rare. Vaccines are available to protect against certain strains of the virus, and public health measures can help prevent its spread. Awareness and hygiene practices are essential in managing the risk of infection.
