The flu is a highly contagious respiratory illness that shows up year after year. Which fact about the flu virus intrigued you the most?

I'm a biotechnology student, and I promise to find a cure within the next ten years

I had the flu when I was in my late 20's. The flu is no joke. I always thought it was like a and head cold or chest cold. NONE OF THE ABOVE. Terrible horrible body aches and a fever that made me hallucinate. Great video BTW. These are facts. Science is key.

I hate ppl who cough or sneeze without covering mouth with arm

I truly enjoyed how this video displays information that would otherwise be quite boring in a textbook or dry spoken seminar. National Geographic gets it.

My sons and I have type a flu right now, it’s rough, I can’t wait to feel better. As a type 1 diabetic, it’s been a challenge for me. My boys are getting better though, thank God.

Great-grandpa survived Spanish flu Grandma survived Asian influenza Dad survived Hong Kong influenza I survived Swine flu

UKposts starts reccomending this type of videos to me after the coronavirus outbreak starts....

When you are chilling in your bed with the flu watching this

Love your videos! Your videos are full of so much information my teacher didn't even tell us about! Thanks keep it up National geographic!!

Great video! Some key points were highlighted that I hadn't heard anyone else discuss. Thank you!

Sleep, rest, then eat healthy foods are best ways to defeat viruses. Sleep is the best thing to do as it boosts the immune system and enables cells to be strong to fight the infected cells, according to doctors and scientists.

Thank you for the short but very informative video!!!!

The flu from birds can travel to pigs, and then to the people who eat the pigs. We live in the very fun times for the viruses. Let's hope the vaccines do help us !

I've never had the flu. Years later I discovered I have the HLA-B27 allele which apparently provides a protective response to influenza. Perhaps that's why I've never gotten it.

I had a flu a year before corona. I was bed ridden for 7 weeks. My ears an nose were blocked, throat n muscles on fire. Seven miserable weeks, i was so ill and unhappy. I couldnt taste or smell. Just getting up to go toilet would cripple and exhaust me. Anyhoo... this is the story of my life every year sometimes 2 or 3 times p.a.

It’s 2020 and we’re all here cause of corona.

And at the time of posting this comment, it is late 2021 and we're in the middle of a pandemic that doesn't seem to end.

One time I was at my cousin's house.She sneezed and it got in my eye.3 hours later I was throwing up xD

Flu Virus: I am contagious and kills. nCov2019: hold my corona.

I had the flu a little while back and it was miserable I had a sore throat and I hallucinated every time I closed my eyes and I couldn’t breath out of my nose

My wife just sneezed 4 times and this pops up in my suggested videos..

Knowledge is our best line of defence

Great video, thanks.

Where can I find the full documentaries of these? Is it available in Disney+?

So help full😍😍👏👏

It was in my recommend list , I don't know why?

Wow amazing how this video foreshadowed that we are due for another pandemic which we are experiencing now in 2020!!!

Very educational video!

My dad gave us, 4 children, 0 vaccines and the 2 that survived are doing great!!!!

Please do episode in hindi also

I'm sitting here coughing, and this pops up on my list.

Why I can't add a translation for this video? Error text: "The video you requested isn't enabled for community contribution". I want to add a Russian translation (I'm a native Russian speaker).

I have the flu now, and it's soo much worse than when I had COVID

Can I use this video putage for my have own official song for background video?

Who is here after hearing the news of corona virus

Seeing this makes me wonder how we should deal with the coronavirus

Are your Immunization Records up to date and current?🤔 - Zach Van Harris JR

I must add that since I stopped taking the voluntary flu shot, I have stopped getting sick from the Flu. Every year I took it previously, I would end up becoming sick. I'm not an anti-vaccine person by any means, I just know, I seem healthier without this shot in particular.

I’m watching this while I have Flu A. So it’s my immune system making my lungs feel “staby-staby”? Influenza has landed me in the hospital before. Be safe, guys.

Thank

Can you make the video of corona virus

Oh no!

NG: the threat of another influenza pandemic remains !! ME: who knew we would witness the threat culminating into reality so soon

I always wash my hands

Who else is watching this while they have the flu?

I feel so bad

I'm nurse student and am study it in college

Watching this in 2021...

Nice

The flu got me, and I need to know what is going inside of me. 2 days before my bday, and I'm trying to knock this out.

Coronavirus:I am about to end the flus career

Decided to watch this first day fever free from blasted flu 😂💪

I’m having this virus it’s horrific

I gets it every year! And i am 12 years old and as a baby i contracted a lung disease! And the swine flu break out in 2009! U-oh😨😥

Another great scientific accurate documentary by NG.

I've got a bad cold at the moment 🤕

I sneezed before I watched the video

This may sound harsh, but we have removed all of the natural occurring checks in our population. Some of these are supposed to happen to dial back are exploding population because the people refuse to be responsible for it

I am scared now !😨

☝

*I wonder if viruses do National Geographic on us.*

Flu Virus: *Exists* COVID-19: Yes, but actually no

i'm here because of the newest Corona virus

I've heard of ones having bad side effects . And ones that never got the vaccine either. Do you think virisus attacks the side effected areas, then act as those cells, and as treated, in sleeps, rests, attacks in those areas, injurie areas acting like injured areas, normal, then still there. After vaccinations would it act normal, attack at , rests ? And a cycle of it, manipulatiing acting like normal cells, duplicating cells, after cells. Little by little, hiding imitating in areas. Forever. .I don't know, I don't have it, but did feel it when I went around a little bit from ones who got it. What I did was ,push ups, ate,I fought strong to burn it out of my body, like evaporation. Barely touched me. I'm okay. Did get the tetna shot , but not every year or whatever it's suppose to be. I haven't got I'll for years. I think from smoking my Colorado. And doing the have to do things. What you think Docs ? It's something to, nothing. To keeps going like study's no?

Now like 0:02

I knock on your skin and I am in... lyrics from Bjork : Virus.

I'm wtching this video as my body is dealing with flu

Been fighting off a fever, on the bright side maybe I'll make more Mason TV Episodes...

watching this while my Chinese seat mate is coughing

I have flu

Genuinely scared of the flu now

As someone who prefers natural remedies over pharmaceuticals, I'm thrilled to see Planet Ayurveda being mentioned here! Their products have been a game-changer for me during flu season.

I like 0:01
