    The flu, short for influenza, is caused by a virus, not bacteria. Influenza viruses belong to the Orthomyxoviridae family and can cause respiratory illness in humans. There are different types and strains of influenza viruses, including influenza A, B, and C, with influenza A and B viruses being the most common causes of seasonal flu outbreaks in humans. Antibiotics, which are used to treat bacterial infections, are not effective against viruses like the flu. Instead, antiviral medications are used to treat influenza infections and help reduce the severity and duration of symptoms.
