Weekly Report of Influenza and Influenza-like Illness (ILI) Activity
MMWR Week 6 (2/2/25-2/8/25)
Updated February 14, 2025
Geographic Activity by Regions
Wyoming as a whole had high ILI activity this week (MMWR Week 6). Transmission levels
continue to increase across the state.
Healthcare providers in 21 counties reported ILI activity.
The electronically reported influenza cases represent all five Infectious Disease Epidemiology
(IDE) Geographic Regions.
Healthcare providers across the state electronically reported 359 cases of influenza (rapid
influenza diagnostic tests and PCR confirmed tests) this week.
Public Health Laboratory
The overall volume of samples tested for influenza at the Wyoming Public Health
Laboratory has steadily declined following the increasing distribution of the CDC
Influenza SARS-CoV-2 Multiplex Assay in addition to at home testing options. We
strongly encourage providers across the state to send additional specimens
to the WPHL for virologic surveillance. The number of positive influenza
specimens electronically reported this week increased significantly compared to
week 5.
