Question

Influenza is an acute human viral disease that causes brief cellular damage followed by healing and complete clearing of the virus from the body. Hepatitis C is a chronic viral disease that causes slow destruction of liver tissue and persistent virions that are not completely cleared. Which of these diseases is more likely to be caused by lytic virus and which is caused by a non-lytic virus? Why?

H1N1 flu is a highly contagious viral infection caused by the influenza A (H1N1) virus. The symptoms of H1N1 flu are listed in the box below. An antiviral agent administered within 48 hours of the appearance of symptoms can reduce the severity of the illness. Why is it important to administer an antiviral agent to an infected person within 48 hours of the appearance of symptoms? The H1N1 virus is transmitted through a vector host, such as a mosquito. The H1N1 virus is dormant in cells. The H1N1 virus does not mutate. The H1N1 virus replicates quickly.

00:01 Influenza is an acute human viral disease that causes brief cellular damage followed by healing and complete clearing of the virus from the body.
00:12 So we have been given a situation of our influenza and hepatitis c and based on this we have been asked that which of these disease is more likely to be caused by a lightic virus and which is caused by a non -lightic virus.
00:26 So let us take a look at the solution.
00:28 Now first we have the lightic virus and then we have the non -lightic virus.
00:39 Now if we talk about the influenza, okay, the influenza, this will come under the light virus...
