THE CYTOKINE STORM OF SEVERE INFLUENZA AND DEVELOPMENT OF IMMUNOMODULATORY THERAPY —— Severe influenza remains unusual in its virulence for humans. Complications or ultimately death arising from these infections are often associated with hyperinduction of proinflammatory cytokine production, which is also known as ‘cytokine storm'. For this disease, it has been proposed that immunomodulatory therapy may improve the outcome, with or without the combination of antiviral agents.
