I belive it's rod shaped.

Haemophilus influenzae can cause pneumonia, but it is not what causes influenza. Influenza is a disease that is caused by a virus. Haemophilus influenzae is the name of a bacterium. It was originally thought to be the cause of influenza before they had discovered viruses, that is how a bacterium got the name with "influenzae" in it. This type of bacteria also can cause meningitis, septic arthritis, and many other infections, commonly in children under 5 who have immature immune systems. It is a bacterium that can be present without causing illness, unless the person has a suppressed immune system.when does influenza useally start
Although the organism's name includes the word "influenzae" it is not the same as the influenza virus. It is a bacterium and is treated the same as any bacterial infection with antibiotics. The taxonomy for haemophilus influenzae is: Kingdom:Bacteria Phylum: proteobacteria Class: Gamma Proteobacteria Order: Pasteurellales Family: Pasteurellaceae Genus: Haemophilus Species: Haemophilus influenzae
Some flu victims had no H. influenzae in their lungs.

Hib disease is an infection caused by Haemophilus influenza type b (Hib).

Rod shaped non-mobile bacteria."Haemophilus influenzae, formerly called Pfeiffer's bacillus or Bacillus influenzae, is a non-motile Gram-negative rod-shaped bacterium"(wikipedia).
Some flu victims had no H. influenzae in their lungs.
It is a type of bacteria that can cause pneumonia. Although the name sounds like influenza, it is unrelated to the flu, which is caused by viruses and not bacteria.
The best way to prevent meningitis is to be vaccinated against it. Both Haemophilus influenza type B and Pneumococcal vaccines prevent meningitis.

Like all influenza viruses it has a roughly spherical shape.
