Is Swine Flu a superbug

Answer 1

Swine Flu, caused by the H1N1 influenza virus, is not classified as a superbug. Superbugs are typically bacteria that have developed resistance to multiple antibiotics, making them difficult to treat. While certain strains of influenza can exhibit resistance to antiviral medications, swine flu primarily remains a viral infection rather than a bacterial superbug. Thus, it is important to differentiate between viral infections and antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections.
