Influenza Types
Influenza (i.e. flu) is caused by various viruses. Nowadays, three types of flu
could be found: A, B & C. Among them, A is the most common one. In Hong
Kong, H1N1 and H3N2 could be seen very often. They are spread via the
respiratory tract, predominantly by airborne or droplet spread or through
direct contact with patients' secretions. Patients usually present with fever,
headache, muscle ache, blocked or running nose, sore-throat, cough and
tiredness, etc.
Prevention is better than cure. To prevent your staff to be infected by these
viruses, many companies would arrange the flu vaccination for your staff and
dependants around October & November every year. In order to cater for
clients' need, HMMP Ltd would have the special offer for the flu vaccination
this year.
