The authors discuss acute viral infections of the respiratory tract that cause high epidemic-pandemic morbidity and relevant mortality owing to secondary bacterial superinfections. Current measures of environmental and individual prevention do not seem to be effective. Similarly, the traditional therapeutic approach based on antibiotics is not always sufficient. However, the yearly prophylactic vaccination against influenza virus is the effective measure provided current WHO recommendations are followed.
