• B)The symptoms are associated with the immune system's response,NOT the molecules from the pathogens themselves.Our responses against viruses are fairly similar,regardless of virus type,so the symptoms are similar.
• C)Most viruses infect the upper respiratory tract-this leads to the common set of symptoms listed above.Only a few viruses infect areas away from this region.
