The flu viruses cause the infectious respiratory disease known as influenza.
yes it causes diseases such as flu,conjuctivitis
Yes. "Swine flu" is a shortened name for the H1N1/09 influenza, which is a viral infection that causes disease in humans (and other animals). It is considered an infectious disease that causes illness in the hosts of the virus.
No, but it is caused by an organism. Influenza is the name of the infectious disease that certain viruses cause in people and other animals. The virus that causes the flu is the organism, and influenza is the disease the organism causes.
A pathogen causes infectious disease. For instance, influenza virus is the pathogen that causes flu.
The flu is not a fungal disease. Flu is caused by the influenza virus.

Swine flu is a respiratory disease caused by type A influenza virus that regularly causes outbreaks of influenza in pigs. The "classical" swine flu virus (an influenza type A H1N1 virus) was first isolated from a pig in 1930. Swine flu viruses cause illness in pigs, but the death rates are low. This new virus, although it is being called "swine flu," is not the same virus.
The scientific name of the pathogen that causes the flu is Influenza virus. There are different types of influenza viruses, with the main ones being type A, B, and C.
HIV is the virus. AIDS is the disease caused by the virus. (So HIV is not actually a disease per se.) As an analogue - the H1N1 virus can cause the flu.

Flu viruses cause disease, they cause influenza (flu). They are the infectious agents of the flu. The viruses are submicroscopic organisms that infect your body and that give you the influenza, the disease.
It is a disease the causes a sickness.
