The flu virus can be contracted primarily through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks. It can also spread by touching surfaces contaminated with the virus and then touching the face, particularly the mouth, nose, or eyes. Close contact with infected individuals increases the likelihood of transmission. Additionally, being in crowded places during flu season heightens the risk of catching the virus.
