Type B Influenza: Type B influenza is a subtype of the influenza virus that tends to occur sporadically-can cause epidemics but not pandemics.
The species responsible for the most infections is Haemophilus influenzae. Haemophilus influenzae can cause infections in children and sometimes in adults who have a chronic lung disorder or a weakened immune system. Infection is spread by sneezing, coughing, or touching infected people. One type of Haemophilus influenzae, called type b, is more likely to cause serious infections. In children, Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) can spread through the bloodstream (causing bacteremia) and infect the joints, bones, lungs, skin of the face and neck, eyes, urinary tract, and other organs.
