How does the flu affect businesses and governments? could it affect residents' access to certain resources?

The flu is a very dangerous disease that is thankfully not anymore in circulation. When people working in government jobs are affected by this disease it delays the time they come to work and therefore the country's business goes down.

Also a large amount of money is spent by the government to cure this disease and the government has to focus on the eradication of these diseases and waste time.

When infected people use some resources and many citizens use the same resource then a large number of people could get affected due to this and therefore the country's economy is reduced with the resources.

Hope it helps you!
