Description

Influenza is one of the most infectious diseases, often leading to epidemics. This book explores its causes, explains differences with the common cold, and advocates ways of reducing the risk of infection. The CBC Health Books are designed in line with the Competency-based curriculum to equip readers with the basic knowledge, skills and attitudes that promote a happy and healthy lifestyle. The stories are narrated in a friendly and simplified way, to give information on causes, prevention and management of health conditions. The emphasis is on prevention, in the belief that early information can be vital in avoiding behaviours that increase risk.
