Community surveys and population-based telephone surveys in areas with focal outbreaks of novel influenza A (H1N1) virus infection have identified self-reported influenza-like illness (ILI) among approximately 6% of the population in the areas surveyed (CDC, unpublished data, 2009).

In June 2009, the New York City Health Department conducted a household survey that indicated that 7% of New Yorkers reported having ILI (fever accompanied by either cough or sore throat) during May 1--20, 2009; because other indicators of ILI (e.g., physician visits for respiratory illness) demonstrated continued and increasing community transmission within New York City, subsequent surveys are likely to indicate that even higher rates of self-reported ILI occurred during late May--June 2009 (25).
