<b>Tiga Pilar Pertahanan Tubuh Terhadap Influenza: Vaksin, Terapi Antivirus, dan Imunomodulator dalam Perspektif Kedokteran Preventif dan Kuratif</b>

Influenza is an acute respiratory infection that continues to pose a global health threat due to its high morbidity and mortality burden. In order to overcome this challenge effectively, an integrative approach is required, encompassing three main pillars: annual vaccination adapted to virus mutation dynamics, the use of antiviral agents targeting viral RNA replication, and immune system strengthening through herbal-based immunomodulators and essential micronutrients. This paper emphasizes the importance of synergy between preventive and curative efforts in modern public health strategies.Immunomodulation, which includes a combination of phytocomponents with vitamin C and zinc, has been shown to enhance innate and adaptive immune responses, improve protection to infection, and support recovery processes.An evidence-based approach integrating these three elements is considered the most relevant strategy for addressing influenza virus evolution and strengthening the population's immunological resilience.

Abstract

Influenza is an acute respiratory infection that continues to pose a global health threat due to its high morbidity and mortality burden. In order to overcome this challenge effectively, an integrative approach is required, encompassing three main pillars: annual vaccination adapted to virus mutation dynamics, the use of antiviral agents targeting viral RNA replication, and immune system strengthening through herbal-based immunomodulators and essential micronutrients. This paper emphasizes the importance of synergy between preventive and curative efforts in modern public health strategies.Immunomodulation, which includes a combination of phytocomponents with vitamin C and zinc, has been shown to enhance innate and adaptive immune responses, improve protection to infection, and support recovery processes.An evidence-based approach integrating these three elements is considered the most relevant strategy for addressing influenza virus evolution and strengthening the population's immunological resilience.
