Senior Citizens Still Doing Well Against H1N1 but Need Vaccination Says CDC
Cases leveling off but new surge is possible ? see charts by age of cases, hospitalizations, deaths
March 15, 2010 - The latest report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) shows a relatively small increase in H1N1 cases, hospitalizations and deaths. The numbers released on Friday also confirm senior citizens are fairing relatively well in avoiding and battling this flu.
Just ten percent of cases have been seniors but CDC still says people 65 years and older should get vaccinated for 2009 H1N1.
While less likely to get sick with 2009 H1N1 than younger people, people 65 and older are at high risk of serious complications if they do become ill, according to the CDC.
?Vaccination of people with certain health conditions also is important because they are at higher risk of serious flu-related complications. Health conditions that increase the risk of being hospitalized from 2009 H1N1 include lung disease like asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), diabetes, heart, or neurologic disease, and pregnancy.
?The latest estimates through February 13, 2010 show a relatively small increase in the total number of 2009 H1N1 cases, hospitalizations and deaths since the previous estimates posted on February 12, 2010. The additional four weeks of flu activity data added to derive these updated estimates correlate with a four week period of ongoing but generally low flu activity in the United States.
The data by age provided in the updated estimates continues to confirm that people younger than 65 years of age are more severely affected by this disease relative to people 65 and older compared with seasonal flu, reports the CDC.
● With seasonal influenza, about 60 percent of seasonal flu-related hospitalizations and 90 percent of flu-related deaths occur in people 65 years and older.
● With 2009 H1N1, approximately 90% of estimated hospitalizations and 87% of estimated deaths from April through February 13, 2009 occurred in people younger than 65 years old.
?The United States experienced its first wave of 2009 H1N1 pandemic activity in the spring of 2009, followed by a second wave of 2009 H1N1 activity in the fall. Activity peaked during the second week in October and then declined quickly to below baseline levels in January,? the according to the CDC.
?The early rise in flu activity in October is in contrast to non-pandemic influenza seasons. Influenza activity usually peaks in January, February or March. Because 2009 H1N1 activity peaked in late October, the greatest increase in the number of estimated 2009 H1N1 cases, hospitalizations and deaths occurred during the period of April through November 14, 2009.?
