Core Viewpoint - The current flu season in China is experiencing a rapid increase in activity, with the H3N2 virus remaining dominant, and experts clarify that there are no new pathogens causing emerging infectious diseases [1][2][3]. Group 1: Flu Virus Characteristics - The H3N2 subtype is not new and is a common variant, with seasonal fluctuations between H1N1, H3N2, and B-type flu viruses [3]. - Influenza viruses undergo "antigenic drift," leading to seasonal outbreaks, but this does not imply that the virus is becoming increasingly virulent [4][5]. Group 2: Vaccination Insights - With the flu season in full swing, vaccination remains beneficial, even for those who have experienced flu-like symptoms but have not been diagnosed [6][8]. - It is advised not to vaccinate during the acute phase of infection, but individuals can receive the vaccine after recovery from flu-like symptoms [7]. Group 3: Treatment and Symptoms in Children - Antibiotics are ineffective against viral infections like the flu, and treatment should focus on rest, hydration, and symptomatic relief [9]. - Symptoms in children can vary significantly, with older children showing symptoms similar to adults, while younger children may exhibit different signs such as digestive issues [9].
