Technically, viruses are not alive, thus they are not a cell. You may be referring to the protein capsid in which the nucleic acid of the virus is enclosed in. The contents of the capsid may vary depending on the virus, but it can be ssDNA, dsDNA, ssRNA, or dsRNA.
Influenza is caused by a virus. its straight up a virus...
Influenza is caused exclusively by viruses in the Orthomyxoviridae family.Viruses are not true cells and are metabolically inert until they are attached or inside of a host cell of a plant or animal (including humans).
The incubation period for the flu virus is typically between 1-4 days, with symptoms usually appearing within 2 days of exposure. However, it can vary depending on the individual's immune system and other factors. It is important to seek medical advice if you suspect you have been exposed to the flu virus.
No, a flue is not a virus. A flue is a duct, pipe, or chimney for conveying exhaust gases from a fireplace, furnace, boiler, or smokestack. On the other hand, a virus is a small infectious agent that can replicate only inside the living cells of an organism.

Yes flu is a virus
Avian Flu is caused by the virus like Flu virus in man. This virus has evolved with birds.

No, the flu is caused by a virus.
Flu season is the period of the year when the flu virus is most active and spreads to the most other people. It's usually considered to be Fall and Winter because that's when people are gathered inside more and spread the virus around more easily.
The flu virus is pervasive in that it is a common virus which is spread from person to person generally in the cold months. There are several sub-categories of the flu virus, and the flu shot will usually contain 2 or three of these variations annually.
Flu is always caused a virus, not bacteria, so no flu epidemic will be due to a bacterial agent. This is true of the 1918 "Spanish Flu", it was caused by a virus.
Influenza is caused by a virus. its straight up a virus...
It is caused by a virus called A-H1N1/09 influenza virus (aka swine flu).
Influenza is caused exclusively by viruses in the Orthomyxoviridae family.Viruses are not true cells and are metabolically inert until they are attached or inside of a host cell of a plant or animal (including humans).
Yes. In fact the way the H1N1 pandemic swine flu was formed by the mixing of a human flu virus, a bird flu virus and a swine flu virus in a pig. When two similar viruses that are infecting the same cell exchange genetic material this is known as reassortment. They go on to form a new virus.
No. The flu (influenza) is caused by a virus. See related questions below.
