    H1N1, also known as swine flu, is an influenza A virus subtype that originated in pigs but spread to humans. The first case was detected in the United States in 2009 and it quickly became a global pandemic. Symptoms include coughing, runny nose, and fatigue. While usually mild, it can lead to pneumonia or other serious breathing problems. It is transmitted through droplets from coughs or sneezes and touching infected surfaces. Treatment focuses on antiviral drugs and vaccines that protect against the H1N1 strain. COVID-19 first emerged in China in late 2019 and was declared a pandemic in 2020. It is caused by a novel coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2 that originated in animals.

    Pandemic In Last 500 Years

    Influenza A (H1N1)

    H1N1, also known as Swine Flu is a respiratory disease of influenza which is a subtype A virus
    and it is a common flu affected by pigs, birds and humans.
    It's called swine flu because in the past, the people who caught it had direct contact with pigs.
    That changed several years ago, when a new virus emerged that spread among people who hadn't
    been near pigs.
    The first infection was detected on April 15th 2009 in California, United States of America. It’s
    caused by the H1N1 strain of the influenza virus.
    By June, H1N1 was spreading fast around the world, so the World Health Organization called it
    a pandemic. Since then, people have continued to get sick from swine flu.
    The seasonal flu has symptoms similar to the swine flu, but it is transmitted from person to
    another. When people cough or sneeze with it, they spray tiny droplets of the virus into the air.
    When they come into contact with these droplets, they touch a surface. Like touching a doorknob
    or touching something that an infected person recently touched catches H1N1. These leads to:

     Coughing
     Running nose
     Fatigue

    Swine flu can lead to more serious problems including pneumonia and other breathing
    complications.
    To test for swine flu, your doctor runs a swab up the inside of your nose or around the back of
    your throat. The only people who really need to be tested are those in the hospital or those at
    high risk for life-threatening problems such as:

     Pregnant women
     People with chronic illnesses
     Those who have weakened immune systems

    Some of the same antiviral drugs that are used to treat seasonal flu and the same flu vaccine that
    protects against seasonal flu also protects against the H1N1 swine flu strain. You can get it as a
    shot or as a nasal spray which "trains" your immune system to attack the virus.

    There are other things you can do to prevent the virus and stay healthy:

     Avoid people who are sick.


     Wash your hands throughout the day with soap and water. Meanwhile use water or an
    alcohol-based sanitizers.
    After a decade new disease formed.
    SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19)

    Coronavirus (COVID-19) defined as illness caused by a novel coronavirus called severe acute
    respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2

    The first case was identified in Wuhan City, China. It was the first country infected, due to being
    exposed in a wet market. It was officially reported to the World Health Organization on
    December 31, 2019. The World Health Organization declared the outbreak a Public Health
    Emergency of International Concern on 30 January 2020, and a pandemic on 11 March 2020.
    Coronaviruses are zoonotic. They first develop in animals before being transmitted to humans.

    The Covid 19 virus shares similar information with influenza. Meanwhile, COVID-19 can be
    diagnosed by using a cotton swab to retrieve a sample from inside of your nostrils. If you think
    you have been in contact with someone has a COVID
    ,get tested immediately.
    Treatment with COVID19 focuses on managing symptoms as the virus progresses, and common
    symptoms have similarities with H1N1 virus. See a doctor if you experience shortness of breath
    or shortness of breath, chest pain, or sedentary lifestyle. To date, 222 countries have been
    affected and governments have ordered 3.9 billion people in more than 90 countries or territories
    to stay home by imposing a worldwide travel ban. Avoid touching your face regularly and
    thoroughly, stay at home if you feel unwell, stay 1.5 meters away and get vaccinated. There are 6
    vaccines available: AstraZeneca, Pfizer, Sinopharm, Moderna, Sinovac as well as Johnson and
    Johnson. Together we can fight this battle.
