#flu resistance

Not only the scientific and patient community responded to the appearance of the new drug. Researchers from Japan have discovered influenza viruses in recent months, whose strains have resistance to Xofluza. Scientists noted, mutated influenza viruses that were not affected by baloxavir marboxyl were found in about one in four (about 23.4%) of the study participants, which they examined. Researchers examined schoolchildren - children under the age of 12 years. The discovered strains were 120 times more resistant to the new drug, than influenza viruses without mutations.
