Although influenza activity was historically low during the 2020/21 influenza season, we could experience an influenza activity surge this coming season with relaxed COVID-19 mitigation strategies, increased travel and the reopening of schools and businesses.

Even in cases when influenza vaccination does not completely prevent infection, studies have shown [20] it can reduce the duration and severity of illness and help prevent serious complications, including hospitalisation and death. Vaccination is going to be especially important in the 2021/22 season if influenza and SARS-CoV-2 viruses would co-circulate. In this possible scenario, influenza vaccination and the strengthening of an integrated surveillance of influenza viruses and SARS-CoV-2 are critical elements in preparing for a possible resurgence of influenza in the 2021/22 season.
