TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) ? The number of flu deaths in northwestern Ohio's Lucas County is on pace to surpass such deaths over the past five years.

The Blade of Toledo reports (http://bit.ly/1eWHwZ1) that four Lucas County residents and three people in neighboring counties have died from the flu in recent weeks, with months still to go in the flu season.

In the past two years, there were no confirmed flu deaths in Lucas County and just one in the 2010-2011 season.

pH1N1
Data Sparsity

Ohio



A total of 3 sequences are on file from US Public Health sources to describe the entire state of Ohio for the current season (s2013), the last season (s2012) and the inter-season (i2013).
  • 2013-December
  • 2013-January
  • 2012-November

The single s2013 sequence carries predictive genetics at the Hemagglutinin segment that are correlated to Immune Escape variation at HA 158E, HA 190G, HA 225G and HA 225N.

Statistically, can two seasons of Influenza in Ohio be quantified by a sample population of 3?

During the minimal pH1N1 case count in the Northern Hemisphere's 2012 season and post-season, the US CDC demonstrated the experimental importance of Egg Passage strategies. Variant polymorphisms known to drive deep lung involvement in humans were surfaced repeatedly from quasi-species. That egg-based experimentation was considered valuable and was pursued throughout much of 2013, but evidently not to quantify the actual circulating pH1N1 viral population . . . because the production came to a full halt at the moment that the US flu season's high fatality rates became public due to an unexpected re-emergence of pH1N1 . . .
