J10.0: Influenza with pneumonia, seasonal influenza virus identified
You have a viral flu.
You have been infected with influenza viruses. Influenza viruses are transmitted via the air or skin.
Typical symptoms of influenza are muscle aches, headaches and a high temperature.
In addition, your lungs are inflamed. You need lungs to breath. When we breathe in, oxygen enters the lungs and accumulates in the blood. This blood then flows to the heart. The heart then pumps the oxygen-rich blood throughout the body. All of the organs are supplied with oxygen as a result.
Due to the inflammation, you may have breathing difficulties.
You have been infected with specific influenza viruses. These viruses occur every year in a certain period. These viruses are in Europe from November to April.
