What is cold or flu ? What causes cold or flu ?
A 'cold' and the 'flu' cause many of the same symptoms. But a cold is generally more mild, while the flu tends to be more severe and harder to rid.
A cold often starts with feeling tired, with sneezing and coughing occurring and having a runny nose. You may not have a fever or you may run a low fever with only 1 or 2 degrees higher than usual body temperature. You may also have muscle aches, a scratchy or sore throat, watery eyes or a headache.
The 'flu' starts suddenly and impacts the immune system hard. You'll probably will feel weak and tired, and have a fever, with a dry cough, and a runny nose, and some of the following conditions; chills, muscle aches, severe headache, eye pain and a sore throat.
It usually takes longer to get over the flu than a cold.
There are over 100 different viruses that can cause colds, but about half of the time a cold is caused by a class of viruses called rhinoviruses which gets into the cells lining your nose and starts reproducing. The 'Flu' is a viral respiratory tract infection. The influenza viruses are divided into three types or strains: A, B, and C; with 'Influenza A' being the more common.
Influenza Type A is responsible for the deadly influenza pandemics and worldwide epidemics that strike every 10 to 40 years periods, whereas type B causes smaller, more localized outbreaks. Type C is less common and causes only mild symptoms. The influenza virus and cold virus are generally passed from person to person by airborne transmission; such as sneezing or coughing, and the virus can also live for a short time on objects like door handles and toilets, and infect a new person when they rub their nose or eat food without washing their hands.
