Situation Update: Summary of Weekly FluView
According to this week’s FluView, flu activity in the United States has increased substantially throughout the nation, most notably in the south central and southeast regions of the country. People who have not already received a flu vaccine should do so now. This FluView update reports on influenza activity for November 18-24, 2012 of the 2012-2013 influenza season.
Below is a summary of these key indicators:
The proportion of visits to doctors for influenza-like illness (ILI) was at the national baseline. This is the earliest in the regular season that influenza activity has reached the national baseline level since the 2003-2004 season. This week, 5 U.S. regions reported ILI activity above region-specific baseline levels and 5 states (Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee and Texas), experienced high ILI activity.
Four states reported widespread influenza activity (Alaska, Mississippi, New York, and South Carolina). Regional influenza activity was reported by 7 states (Alabama, Idaho, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, North Carolina, and Ohio). Nineteen states reported local influenza activity. This is an increase from the 8 states that reported local influenza activity last week.
