Here we report on 4 hospitalized patients with dengue-influenza virus coinfections. All patients were RT-PCR positive for dengue virus and pandemic influenza A H1N1. Clinical findings at presentation ranged from influenza-like illness to severe dengue. Clinical progression of the infections varied, but all developed dengue symptoms and had interstitial infiltrates. Three cases required intensive care management and 1 case was fatal.

Coinfection with influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 and dengue virus in fatal cases
TLDR
Four cases of laboratory-confirmed coinfection of deadly influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 with DENV, which occurred during the dengue and influenza season in 2012 and 2013 in Ceará are reported.

Staphylococcus aureus pneumonia and dengue virus co-infection and review of implications of coinfection
TLDR
The importance of bacteria in exacerbating dengue infections and the importance of looking for co-infection in patients with certain clinical manifestations is highlighted and a scientific understanding of the immune pathogenesis of d Dengue and bacterial co- Infections is provided.
Dengue and H1N1 infection
TLDR
It is no doubt that dengue can coinfect with other infections and the practitioner has to think about possible coinfection in managing any case of H1N1 influenza.
Unusual Dengue Virus 3 Epidemic in Nicaragua, 2009
TLDR
It is demonstrated that parameters other than serotype, viral genomic sequence, immune status, and sequence of serotypes can play a role in modulating dengue disease outcome.
Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) Control between Drug Repurposing and Vaccination: A Comprehensive Overview
TLDR
The potential therapeutic and prophylactic interventions including repurposed drugs and the newly developed/approved vaccines are discussed, highlighting the impact of virus evolution on the immune evasion of the virus from currently licensed vaccines for COVID-19.
Influenza and dengue virus co‐infection impairs monocyte recruitment to the lung, increases dengue virus titers, and exacerbates pneumonia
TLDR
This study shows that co‐infection with influenza and DENV impairs host responses, which fail to control DENV titers and instead, induce severe lung damage, and identifies key inflammatory pathways and monocyte function as targets for future therapies that may limit immunopathology in co‐ Infected patients.

Potential Impact of Co-Infections and Co-Morbidities Prevalent in Africa on Influenza Severity and Frequency: A Systematic Review
TLDR
Age-adjusted morbidity and mortality from influenza may be more common in Africa because infections and diseases common in the region lead to more severe outcomes and increase the influenza burden, however, gaps exist in knowledge about these interactions.

Emergence of a novel swine-origin influenza A (H1N1) virus in humans.
TLDR
A novel swine-origin influenza A virus was identified as the cause of outbreaks of febrile respiratory infection ranging from self-limited to severe illness and it is likely that the number of confirmed cases underestimates thenumber of cases that have occurred.

TLDR
Asthma appears to be a significant risk factor for severe disease, with no clear relation to severity of asthma, and this finding should influence strategies for vaccination and pre-emptive antiviral therapy.
