How many types of influenza virus are there, why we get suffer from cold mostly when season changes.
There are four types of influenza viruses: A, B, C and D. Human influenza A and B viruses cause seasonal epidemics of disease almost every winter. The emergence of a new and very different influenza A virus to infect people can cause an influenza pandemic. Influenza type C infections generally cause a mild respiratory illness and are not thought to cause epidemics. Influenza D viruses primarily affect cattle and are not known to infect or cause illness in people.

No, the zika virus is not contagious from person to person. Because it's not airborne or transmitted via physical contact, there's no risk of becoming infected with the virus from simply standing near an infected person. There has been one confirmed case of zika spread through sexual transmission.

Social distancing; mask -properly wearing and good open ventilation of areas where you stay and move about about are most important as the infectivity is very high in this variant—repeated hand washing also is equally important. Daily steam inhalation; warm saline gargle and drinking 12-15 glasses of warm water -boiled with ayurveda herbs and leaves may give some benefit-at least by improving confidence of the person—which will improve immune status of the person.
