Influenza A and influenza B refer to infections caused by the influenza A virus or influenza B virus, respectively. The influenza virus spreads from person to person via respiratory droplets, direct contact, or contaminated objects. Clinical manifestations of influenza A and B are similar and may include fever, cough, sore throat, headache, muscle or joint pain, fatigue, and occasionally vomiting and diarrhea. Treatment includes antiviral medications, symptomatic relief measures, and prevention of complications. Chlamydia infection is an infection caused by a group of bacterial pathogens known as Chlamydia.
