?A total of 59 deaths (9 pediatric and 50 adult) have been reported...Eighty-five percent (50/59) of individuals who died had known underlying health conditions.

Colorado influenza-associated hospitalizations seem to have declined much faster than other areas of the US...
Children less than 6 months represent 5.4% of all hospitalizations but have the highest hospitalization rate (301.1 hospitalizations per 100,000 population in that age group), which is nearly 10 times the hospitalization rates for the age groups 5-18 yrs, 19-24 yrs, and 25-49 yrs. The hospitalization rate, for the 65+ age group, (44.6 per 100,000 population in that age group) is the highest adult hospitalization rate.

...all but 2 of the sub-typeable specimens have been the 2009 H1N1 virus (99.9%). The other 2 specimens were seasonal H3 virus."

For the past week, two new pediatric deaths were reported. Both of these deaths occurred earlier in the season but were just confirmed by special testing at CDC. Therefore, as of 1/09, a total of 61 laboratory-confirmed influenza-associated deaths (11 pediatric and 50 adult) have been reported. http://www.cdphe.state.co.us/dc/Influenza/09-10_Deaths_Linelist.pdf

?Influenza-Like Illness levels from Kaiser Permanente for the Denver-Boulder metropolitan area has maintained a stable low level for the past six weeks.
?State laboratory virologic surveillance continues to show that virtually all influenza viruses currently circulating in Colorado are 2009 H1N1 virus.

Colorado influenza-associated hospitalizations seem to have declined much faster than other areas of the US. There have been a total of 2,016 influenza hospitalizations reported in 54 counties. For the week ending January 9th, 8 counties reported hospitalizations.

For the week ending January 9th, the percent of ILI visits showed a slight decrease from 1.13% to 1.06%. Overall, ILI surveillance has shown a stable low level for the past seven weeks.

Re: Colorado Week 2 (61 total deaths)

Week 2:

No new deaths
Influenza-Like Illness levels from Kaiser Permanente for the Denver-Boulder metropolitan area dropped to 0.93% from 1.1% the previous week.

Due to low influenza activity and the concern of false positives results from rapid antigen tests, as of January 10, 2010, influenza-associated hospitalizations will be counted as cases only if they are positive by PCR.
