Humans alone have hundreds of diseases that are caused by viruses. A very limited sampling includes: 1. The common cold, which is caused by rhinoviruses. 2. Some types of food poisoning from eating shellfish, caused by noroviruses. 3. Genital warts, which are caused by one strain of herpes simplex virus. 4. AIDS, which is caused by infection with HIV. 5. Cervical cancer, which is caused by infection with human papillomavirus.
If you are asking about a relationship between the common cold and influenza, there is one: both the common cold and influenza are caused by viruses. Other than that relationship, and that they both affect the upper respiratory system, they are not otherwise related. If your question is asking if getting the flu is related to being cold or in the cold, then see the related questions in the related questions section for information about getting a cold or the flu from cold weather.
Some diseases caused by viruses are poliomyelitis, influenza, measles caused by rubeola virus, chikenguniya caused by chikanguniya virus, chickenpox caused by varicella zoster virus, AIDS caused by human immunodeficiency virus, and the common cold.
The flu (full name influenza) is caused by a virus. You can differentiate between an allergic reaction like hay fever and infection with the flu by watching for fever, hot and cold chills and muscle aches - all of these are common with the flu but uncommon in an allergic reaction.
They are caused by a virus.
All three of those infectious diseases are caused by viruses. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is the name of the virus that causes AIDS. The common cold is usually caused by the rhinovirus (up to 40% of colds), or Coronaviruses (about 20%), but there are more than 200 viruses that can cause the common cold. Viruses also cause the flu, there are three types of human influenza viruses, Types A, B and C and many subtypes and strains of each of those types.
