The unidentified virus that causes tomato flu is an infectious disease. The infection is known as "Tomato flu" because its primary symptom is the development of tomato-shaped blisters all over the body that expands to resemble a tomato. primarily impacts young children under the age of five. A "Hand, Foot, and Mouth disease" is tomato flu. Children frequently contract the febrile rash condition known as hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD), which is given on by the enteroviruses (EV) Coxsackie A16 (CA16), EV A71, Coxsackie A6, Coxsackie B, and Echo viruses. The main signs and symptoms of tomato flu in children are high fever, rashes, and severe joint pain, which are also characteristics of chikungunya. In most situations, the clinical presentation is minimal. The infection is self-limiting and will go away on its own in 7–10 days. Tomato flu may not actually be a viral infection in children, but rather a complication of dengue or chikungunya fever. In areas where there are outbreaks, the diagnosis is established on the clinical history and physical examination. The etiological agent of this infectious disease, its course of therapy, and vaccine are still unknown, and this is an important topic of research right now. The tomato flu virus exhibits symptoms resembling COVID-19. Tamil Nadu, Haryana, and Karnataka, three nearby states, were alerted to this pandemic viral infection. Since the recent advent of tomato flu, an uncommon viral disease, no specific medications are now available to treat this virus. Because to the lack of disease-specific medication, only the symptoms are treated with the appropriate antipyretics and analgesics, just like with any other flu. Given how prevalent this infection is, it is crucial to take specific precautions to stop it from spreading further.
