[h=3]Abstract[/h] [h=4]INTRODUCTION:[/h] We report the results of the active surveillance of influenza infections in hospitalized patients and the evaluation of the seasonality and correlation with temperature and rainfall data.
[h=4]METHODS:[/h] During the 2-year study period, 775 patients were tested for 15 respiratory viruses (RVs).
[h=4]RESULTS:[/h] Most of the 57% of (n=444) virus-positive samples were human rhinovirus and respiratory syncytial virus. However, 10.4% (n=46) were influenza virus (80% FluA; 20% FluB). Age and SARI were significantly associated with influenza. FluB circulation was higher is 2013.
[h=4]CONCLUSIONS:[/h] In the post-epidemic period, influenza remains an important cause of hospitalization in SARI patients.
