GridHEALTH.id The flu (influenza) is a seasonal virus that causes mild to severe symptoms.
Some people recover in about a week, while others are at risk for serious, life-threatening complications.
The risk of complications increases if you are over 65 years old. The elderly tend to have a weaker immune system, which naturally occurs with age.
When the immune system is not strong, the body becomes more difficult to fight the virus.
As a flu infection worsens, it can progress to pneumonia and lead to hospitalization, and sometimes death.
Seniors need to know about the flu, including its symptoms, complications, and prevention.
