No. Influenza viruses are active. You are infected, so your body creates antibodies that disable the viruses in 7 to 10 days. Then your body eventually removes all of the "dead" ones from your body. Latent viruses, like HIV, hepatitis C, and Herpes viruses, infect you but don't cause evidence of disease until later, sometimes years later, as they lie dormant (latent) hidden in your tissues until the disease they cause eventually manifests.
