“The first period of the spread of the influenza virus among children occurs in January–February," said Tayyar Eyvazov, a specialist expert of the Ministry of Health and an infectious disease specialist, APA reports.
“This virus is more severe than other viruses and causes prolonged coughing. Because its complications are more serious, the impression is formed that a new virus is spreading among children. However, this is not the case. Epidemiological surveillance measures are constantly carried out, and no new virus has been detected,” he said.
