A recent study by Chang Gung Hospital and University, in collaboration with Johns Hopkins University, discovered that the influenza H3N2 virus exhibits strong toxicity and replication capabilities, potentially causing severe complications in patients. The 10-year research revealed genetic recombination in the H3N2 strain, highlighting its high replication ability and toxicity, making individuals highly vulnerable to the virus even without comorbidities, increasing the risk of severe complications. The study, published in Lancet-Microbe, emphasizes the importance of developing effective vaccines and public health strategies in combating influenza outbreaks.
