What types of microbes are caused by flu?

Actually, the flu is the disease (influenza) and the microbes are what cause the disease, not the other way around. The pathogens ("microbes") responsible for the infectious disease called influenza are viruses.Viruses are submicroscopic-sized particles that can attach to the cells of a host person, animal, plant or bacteria (they are very small even compared to bacteria and other pathogens that are called microbes*) and replicate within the cells. This eventually destroys the cells and makes us sick until our bodies can use the immune system's processes to get rid of it.* Not all scientists classify viruses as microbes since they are submicroscopic and are non-living organisms.

Are all pathogens living things?

The term pathogen is derived from the Greek παθογένεια, "birth of pain." or "that which produces suffering" and that's basically what a pathogen is. It is an agent that causes pain and suffering to its host through disease or illness. Put more simply, a pathogen is anything that causes a disease. The agents that cause these diseases are infectious microbes (more commonly known to people as germs or bugs) such as bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. There are many different types of these agents and not all of them are infectious or harmful. In fact the majority of them are harmless and some even beneficial. Therefore it is important to remember, that pathogens refer specifically to those agents that can cause disease, illness or harm to its host. So yes, in answer to the question. pathogens are harmful bacteria (but not just bacteria) that cause disease.
