P&I deaths still rising

Despite the %ILI rates declining for four weeks straight, the P&I deaths have continued to increase over the same period (with one slight downturn). Levels are currently well above the epidemic threshold for peak flu season.

Re: P&I deaths still rising

Already posted elsewhere, but for comparison sake;



% of all deaths due to P&I in the last three years.



Comparison of % P&I for Week 35-46 for the past 10 years.

Each 1% above average represents between 400 and 500 excess deaths due to P&I for that week.
