No, injecting just the RNA of an influenza virus into a cell would not cause an active infection. While the viral RNA is essential for replication and protein synthesis, the cell also requires other viral components and proteins that are part of the complete virus for the infection process to initiate. Additionally, the host cell machinery needs to be hijacked by the entire virus to effectively produce new viral particles.
No, influenza is caused by viruses, specifically the influenza virus. Influenza viruses can infect the respiratory tract and lead to symptoms such as fever, cough, and body aches. Antibiotics, which are used to treat bacterial infections, are not effective against the influenza virus.

It is an infectious disease caused by a virus, such as measles, mumps, influenza, shingles, the common cold and so on.
Influenza is an infectious disease also commonly known as Flu. It’s an acute respiratory infection caused by Influenza Virus A and Virus B. Central BioHub's is an online biospecimen marketplace. It offers high-quality, well-defined influenza disease biospecimens collected from patients suffering from influenza infections. To check more visit our website.
Yes, influenza is a virus.
Flu stands for influenza. As you can tell, it's just a shortened version of the word.
Another word for influenza is "the flu." It refers to the viral infection that affects the respiratory system, often characterized by symptoms such as fever, cough, and body aches.
