The Flu Influenza (the flu) is a contagious respiratory illness caused by a virus. There are 2 major types of flu viruses, type A and B, that circulate throughout the world each year. Symptoms of flu can be mild to severe, and at times can lead to death. In the United States, about million people become infected with the flu virus annually.
