Differences in influenza seasonality by latitude, northern India.
Koul PA, Broor S, Saha S, Barnes J, Smith C, Shaw M, Chadha M, Lal RB.
Abstract
The seasonality of influenza in the tropics complicates vaccination timing. We investigated influenza seasonality in northern India and found influenza positivity peaked in Srinagar (34.09?N) in January-March but peaked in New Delhi (28.66?N) in July-September. Srinagar should consider influenza vaccination in October-November, but New Delhi should vaccinate in May-June.
