şimdi öyle uzak ki geldiğim yollar
yanlış bir öyküdeyim beni yeniden yaz..
bir çoçuktum sevmiştim
avuçlarımda aynalar
gayret et güzelim elini uzat
ha gayret güzelim gayret
biter elbet bu yağmur sabret
der belki buzları kırmaktan yorgun
düşmüş ve
ulaşmaya çalıştığı ay'a kırık dökük
olan
kar
delen.

Flu spreads around the world in seasonal epidemics, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of thousands annually — millions in pandemic years. Three influenza pandemics occurred in the 20th century and killed tens of millions of people, with each of these pandemics being caused by the appearance of a new strain of the virus in humans. Often, these new strains result from the spread of an existing flu virus to humans from other animal species. An avian strain named H5N1 had until recently posed the greatest risk for a new influenza pandemic since it first killed humans in Asia in the 1990s. Although H5N1 virus has not mutated to a form that spreads easily between people, in April 2009 a novel H1N1 flu strain that combined genes from human, pig, and bird flu, initially dubbed the "swine flu," emerged in Mexico, the United States, and several other nations. By late April, the H1N1 swine flu was suspected of having killed over 150 in Mexico, and prompted Mexico and U.S. travel advisories.
Vaccinations against influenza are usually given to people in developed countries and to farmed poultry. The most common human vaccine is the trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) that contains purified and inactivated material from three viral strains. Typically, this vaccine includes material from two influenza A virus subtypes and one influenza B virus strain. The TIV carries no risk of transmitting the disease, and it has very low reactivity. A vaccine formulated for one year may be ineffective in the following year, since the influenza virus evolves rapidly, and different strains become dominant. Antiviral drugs can be used to treat influenza, with neuraminidase inhibitors being particularly effective.
