Solution
Flu :
Influenza, also known as the flu, is a contagious respiratory illness caused by the Influenza A or Influenza B viruses.
As a result, flu is classified as a viral infection because viruses are the primary cause.
The flu is a viral infection that affects your respiratory system, including your nose, throat, and lungs.
The flu is a common term for influenza, but it is not the same as stomach "flu" (viruses that cause diarrhea and vomiting).
