Can adults transmit type B influenza?

Adults can also be infected with influenza type B. Influenza B virus is one of the types of influenza viruses, to which the general population is susceptible. Whether adolescents and children, the elderly, middle-aged individuals, or healthy adults, strong adults, and young people with relatively robust immune systems, all are prone to infection. Generally, if influenza virus infection occurs, antiviral medications such as oseltamivir should be used early. Early use of antiviral drugs can shorten the duration of illness, alleviate symptoms, and reduce the occurrence of complications. During this period, enhanced daily care measures are also necessary.
