The flu, or influenza, is primarily considered a systemic infection rather than a localized one. It affects the respiratory system and can cause widespread symptoms throughout the body, including fever, fatigue, and muscle aches. While the virus initially infects the respiratory tract, its effects can extend beyond this area, leading to complications in other organs. Therefore, it is not confined to a specific location in the body.
