Presentation
Laboratory evidence of influenza A(H1N1) virus infection was present. Two children died as a result of their illness. The association of virus and gastrointestinal haemorrhage is explored. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The age distribution seen in the present study is compatible with the results of these serological studies. [doi.org]
Entire Body System
- Fever
Fever (frequency, 90.0%), cough (frequency, 74.1%), and rhinorrhea (frequency, 61.8%) were the most frequent symptoms. The mean duration of fever was 2.88 days (standard deviation, 1.66 days). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The flu is often characterized by running a high fever--typically 102 degrees or higher, says the AAFP. That fever is generally accompanied by sweating and the chills, and aches and pains all over the body. [livestrong.com]
- High Fever
A 26-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of high fever, drowsiness, memory disturbance, and disorientation due to H1N1 influenza virus-associated encephalitis/encephalopathy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

- Fatigue
Infected individuals usually experience a rapid onset of flu symptoms which typically include: muscle aches, high fever, head ache, chills, fatigue, dry cough and runny/stuffy nose. [3dscience.com]

I think that I don't really have to list the symptoms most people get from the flu since you've almost certainly had it yourself, but just in case you somehow lucked out, the flu typically causes a fever, muscle aches, fatigue, coughing, sneezing, congestion [study.com]
Six of seven cases of influenza-like illness were mild, with patients reporting subjective (unrecorded) fever ( n = 7), cough ( n = 4), runny nose ( n = 3), headache ( n = 3), muscle pain ( n = 3), sore throat ( n = 2), and fatigue ( n = 1). [doi.org]
- Malaise
Incidentally, he was found to have some non-specific symptoms, including malaise and myalgias. These findings were attributed to killed-virus H1N1 vaccine given 48 hours earlier. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Clinical manifestations (cough, fever, and malaise) are typically mild, but infants are susceptible to serious lower respiratory tract infections [3]. [doi.org]
Respiratoric
- Pneumonia
The purpose of this study was to perform clinicopathological evaluations of patients with pure influenza A virus pneumonia. We performed clinicopathological analyses of four cases of pure influenza A virus pneumonia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Cough
Yet differing symptoms of the cold are: sore throat; productive, phlegmy coughs; and sneezing. [3dscience.com]
The illness was acute, with rapid onset, high fever, nonproductive cough, dyspnea, cyanosis, crepitations and rales over both lung bases, and associated arterial hypoxemia, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Respiratory Distress
These 3 children shared common clinical and radiologic features: rapid and progressive respiratory distress with whole lung atelectasis on chest radiograph. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Common Cold
More severe than the common cold, flu symptoms can cause serious complications like pneumonia and other infections in some people -- especially those with a weakened immune system, including the elderly, the very young and pregnant women. [livestrong.com]

The common cold (acute viral nasopharyngitis) is not caused by the Influenza virus, but it is often confused with the flu because it does share similar symptoms such as: fatigue, cough, head ache and runny nose. [3dscience.com]

- Dyspnea
The illness was acute, with rapid onset, high fever, nonproductive cough, dyspnea, cyanosis, crepitations and rales over both lung bases, and associated arterial hypoxemia, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Of these 5 children, 4 were hospitalized, and 1 of these 4, a prematurely born 1-year-old boy, had dyspnea due to croup and was receiving oxygen therapy without ventilatory assistance We found cases of multiple infection within 4 families, which suggested [doi.org]
Course
- Severe Clinical Course
The pathologic change induced by the direct viral invasion cannot be responsible for all of the symptoms, especially for the rapid and severe clinical course of the disease within 24-48 h after the initial respiratory symptoms. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Neurologic
- Headache
A headache may also commonly occur along with these symptoms. The flu virus may also cause gastrointestinal symptoms, like vomiting, nausea or diarrhea. [livestrong.com]
