A Study to Assess the Effectiveness of Structured Teaching Program on Knowledge Regarding Prevention of Swine Flu Among in Rural Area in Indore City

Pigs around the world are susceptible to swine influenza, a respiratory disease brought on by type A influenza viruses, particularly strains H1N1, H1N2, H2N1, H3N1, H3N2, and H2N3. Swine influenza viruses can infect humans and cause mild to severe sickness in people of all ages. Those who come into contact with pigs are particularly at risk. Influenza epidemiology research was previously only done in resource-rich nations. After 30,000 cases of H1N1 illness were recorded from more than 70 countries on June 11, 2009, the World Health Organization proclaimed an H1N1 pandemic. The frequency of swine influenza significantly increased in 2015, reaching a 5-year high. 2015 saw 10,000 instances of swine flu confirmed in India, with 774 fatalities.
