Due to the high activity of the flu, when it spreads rapidly through the body, or non-surgical treatment, a person may lose his voice. The otolaryngologist, otoneurologist Olga Malchenko told about this in an interview with URA.RU.

“Loss of voice is possible with any viral infection, including the flu. This happens in the case of the passage of inflammation from the upper respiratory tract, nose, throat, to the vocal cords. This is possible with high activity of the virus, when it spreads rapidly throughout the human body. Another option is when treatment is started late. And the virus gradually spreads along the respiratory tract in a descending manner, ”explained Olga Malchenko.

According to the otolaryngologist, the current flu virus is very aggressive and contagious. “Every new wave of flu is a new mutation. The same virus doesn’t show up twice. The real flu virus is quite aggressive. That is, the more serious, the more contagious, ”Malchenko stressed.

Earlier, the director of the National Research Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology named after NF Gamalei Alexander Gintsburg said that in Russia to replace influenza A Line B arrives. The virus is also tough.
