Understanding an Influenza Concept Map

An influenza concept map shows how the flu is organized as linked ideas. Influenza is a respiratory illness caused by RNA viruses of the Orthomyxoviridae family. A useful map splits the topic into the virus types, how they spread, the symptoms and complications, and the ways to prevent and treat infection.

  • Virus types: influenza A, B, C and D, and their hosts
  • Transmission: droplets, aerosols and contact with surfaces
  • Symptoms: fever, cough, muscle aches and fatigue
  • Complications: pneumonia, and risk in young children and older adults
  • Prevention: annual vaccination, hand hygiene and antivirals

Use the map to review before an exam or to explain the disease to others. To build a map from your own notes, upload them to CogniGuide and get a personalized version in minutes.
