The family practitioner doesnt actually identify the H1N1 virus. If a local test shows up as positive, they send those results to a more specialized hospital to determine if that result is of the flu or the H1N1 virus.

H1N1 is a flu virus, not a bacterium.

yes, because h1n1 is the swine flu and flu's are alot like fevers

Seasonal flu vaccines carry an H1N1 component, an H3N2 strain and an influenza B strain. The H1N1 component is not the Novel H1N1 strain that is in the swine flu vaccine
How likely are you to get the H1N1 flu after your kids had it?

Is it safe to get both the seasonal flu shot and the H1N1-09 virus flu shot?
Yes. In fact, now the seasonal flu shots are combined with the H1N1 Virus flu shot, so you don't have to get two.
What is the most common type of flu?
H1n1
If you have had H1N1 do you still need to get the shot?
If the correct test was done to confirm the H1N1, then, no there is no need to take it again. But if you are not absolutely sure that the test confirmed the A-H1N1/09 flu, then it will do no harm to take the vaccine. The only test that can be relied upon to be an absolute indicator of the vaccination is the RT-PCR test, and not the rapid tests done in the doctor's offices. you should have some immunity against 2009 H1N1 flu and can choose not to get the 2009 H1N1 vaccine.
What type of virus is the H1N1 classified as?
It is a Type A Influenza virus with RNA genome.Also called Swine Flu, the 2009 Pandemic Flu, 2009 Swine Flu, and A-H1N1/09.
