But Flu Watch can give doctors, travelers, and others a head start against the virus and its erratic spread. "This is an Internet network of physicians who, through a surveillance network, are sharing information about flu 'epicenters' with each other," said Peter Livingston, president of ZymeTx Story Tools Today's Top 5 Stories Tables Top Typical Bar Diversions Rasta Man Comes in From the Cold The Search for Total Information Saddam's Bunker Stands Tough ... War Hack Attacks Tit For Tat Livingston's company manufactures a new flu-detection test for doctors. On Friday, ZymeTx announced it had tapped 336 doctors nationwide to take part in its National Flu Surveillance Network, with sites in all 50 states logging their flu findings into the system. "The peak of the flu season is when physicians are more likely to use antivirals to treat you. It allows physicians to watch what's going on in their community and make appropriate treatment decisions," Livingston said. The Centers for Disease Control , the federal public-health agency, provides a flu-tracking system of its own. But there is a two-week lag between detection and notification too much time for the data to help doctors make treatment decisions.

A diagram of the structure of an influenza virus, showing eight genes inside, and the outer spikes that can be recognized by the immune system. Linda Stannard , Department of Medical Microbiology, University of Cape Town. What is Flu? Even if you're not among the 20,000 Americans flu kills in an average year, the bug's a bummer. Between 35 million and 50 million Americans get its chills, fevers, aches and coughs. The direct medical cost of flu is guesstimated at $4.6 billion annually (not counting lost work time). Many deaths are caused by the complication of pneumonia, a lung infection that can be caused by a virus or a bacterium. Others result from exacerbations to pre-existing conditions like diabetes, heart or lung disease. To understand flu, you've got to know something about viruses. First off, they're weird. Unlike all other forms of life, they don't have cells they're basically chains of genetic material lumped inside a protein coat. Viruses can multiply and evolve, but some experts think they're not really alive, since they can't reproduce without a host cell. Host cells are innocent victims that allow the virus to enter and commandeer its machinery to make new viral particles. To some observers, viruses are the ultimate guerilla fighters. Other virologists disagree, arguing that there really is life inside that protein coat. University of Wisconsin flu expert Virginia Hinshaw, for example, says, "To have an infectious agent that has adapted to use our machinery to reproduce, to me, that's living."

Take a shot against the flu, doctors say September 30, 1997 Web posted at: 5:51 p.m. EDT (2151 GMT) ATLANTA (CNN) School is back in session, fall is in the air, and while you may not realize it, flu season is almost here. Health officials say this flu season may be less severe than last year's, but that's no reason not to be prepared. Their advice: Take a pre-emptive strike and get a flu shot. Some groups should not ignore that advice, health experts say. Those include: anyone over age 65; nursing home residents, no matter what age; people who suffer chronic heart and lung problems; those with weak immune systems; and health care workers. Health experts estimate the flu kills as many as 20,000 people a year in the United States. Most of the victims are older patients. While flu vaccines are not 100 percent effective, they are currently the only line of defense available. Vaccines protect against three viruses Flu vaccines contain three virus strains, protecting you from three major viruses, said Dr. Keiji Fukuda of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. "In people who are young and healthy, it's abut 70 to 90 percent effective in keeping you from getting sick," Fukuda said.

The pill, GS4104, is one of two promising experimental drugs in development to ease flu symptoms. The other, zanamivir, is a nasal spray. Studies funded by GS4104's makers report the drug cuts the duration of the illness by about a third and the symptoms, such as cough and fever, by about 40 percent. Complications such as ear infections and bronchitis were reduced by about half. "What we found is this study is when we compared GS4104 to placebo, meaning an inactive compound, people who received the GS recovered from their influenza more rapidly," said researcher Dr. John Treanor of the University of Rochester. With the drug, symptoms of the average flu lasted 2.9 days instead of the usual 4.3 days.

The rare and deadly influenza virus, previously found only in birds and poultry, has infected six people and is suspected of infecting three others in Hong Kong. Patients in two of the confirmed cases a child and an adult have died. Hong Kong Director of Health Margaret Chan told reporters the new suspected cases involve a 2-year-old boy and a 3-year-old girl, who are in satisfactory condition.
