Introduction
Everybody knows about influenza, the symptoms and how to cure the flu naturally. This time, I'd like to study the flu virus in detail. I want to know who that flu virus is. Flu is so trivial, yet we keep having it all the time. We even have avian flu, whatever flu and some other new flu.
I'm not aiming at the WHO recommended influenza vaccine here. My purpose is to find out how we can get rid of the flu from its source, like kill all the flu viruses once and for all, so our children see flu as ancient prehistoric disease.
Flu Virus Infection Process
The flu viruses can only replicate within living cells (just like alien, which can only breed within living organisms). Let's have a look at how the flu viruses infect us:
A single sneeze contains more than half a million virus particles. It contains up to 40,000 droplets. One droplet is capable of carrying the virus into our body and causes flu. The flu virus takes within one-half to one day to infect us. The flu can last for around 2 days to 5 days (on average), and in extreme cases, longer to around 9 days.
The flu virus travels across bodies through several means below:
Flu Virus Inactivation
A flu virus can only survive for about fifteen minutes in a tissue, and five minutes on our skin. If you find mucus on a paper, the virus is protected by the mucus, and can last around 17 days. These viruses can live for 3 months in mineral water, 6 months inside colder water, 2 weeks in faeces, and they are resistant to bleaches and ammonia (cleaning products, crops fertilisers, pesticides, dyes, body fluids like pee and sweat, etc). Influenza viruses can live forever when frozen.
You can kill the flu virus by heating it under 60 °C (150 °F) for at least an hour. You can also throw acid to kill it. It should be more acidic then lemon juice. Battery acid shall kill it, but beware that battery acid can kill us too. Another way is by applying disinfectants, or detergents to easily kill the flu viruses. Therefore, washing hands with disinfectants can safeguard you from the flu virus. Furthermore, drinking warm water (of about 60 °C (150 °F) for at least one hour can drench the virus dead. However, drinking lemon juice doesn't kill the virus, drinking battery liquid or ammonia or detergent will kill the virus and us together along with it.
Flu Virus Prevention
I guess, let's treat the flu viruses as mosquitoes among us. They live among us, so it's important to maintain our hygiene by:

Flu Virus Infection Process
The flu viruses can only replicate within living cells (just like alien, which can only breed within living organisms). Let's have a look at how the flu viruses infect us:
- The flu virus encountered human body (or animal body, or a body). It has to find a way to attach itself to our cell (through nose, mouth, etc) first, like sticking itself to our saliva, or air we breathe in, so it can find a way to get inside the body.
- Once inside our body, which is acidic by the way, and which is a suitable condition for it to breed, it will insert the body acid into its core. The core will then come out of its lair, and force itself to merge into our cells. It even has the power to undo infection on our body because of its entrance.
- The virus core proceeds to travel to our cell core (yes, we have cell core too, just like the core of predator in Alien vs Predator movie). Some of the virus core go back out, some stay inside and wait for its mate to come do their thing. The child will be another flu virus.
- The parent flu virus core then leaves our cell core.
- The child flu virus reaches maturity and detaches itself from its womb (our cell core).
- The child flu virus seeks protection from the blood.
- The virus flu core finds a new cell core to mate. (and this is how flu virus evolves rapidly; flu virus child with our core cell's characteristic mates with another one more advanced, they mutate to become more resistant to our antibody)
- After the release of the child flu virus, our cell core dies.

The flu virus takes within one-half to one day to infect us. The flu can last for around 2 days to 5 days (on average), and in extreme cases, longer to around 9 days.
The flu virus travels across bodies through several means below:
-
Direct contact
An infected person sneezes mucus directly into the eyes, nose or mouth of a healthy person -
Indirect contact with polluted air
A healthy person inhales droplets produced by an infected person by coughing, sneezing, or spitting -
Indirect contact with hand
Hand-to-eye, hand-to-nose, hand-to-mouth transmission through direct contact with contaminated surfaces, or with personal contact such as handshake.

Flu Virus Prevention
I guess, let's treat the flu viruses as mosquitoes among us. They live among us, so it's important to maintain our hygiene by:
- Avoiding touching the eyes, nose or mouth
- Avoiding spitting
- Keeping away from sick people (not because we treat them differently, they ARE different and they must admit it and do something about it)
- Washing our hands often (with soap and water, or with alcohol-based hand rubs)
- Staying at home when you're sick
- Covering coughs and sneezes
