Seasonal Flu 2008 - 2009

Re: Seasonal Flu 2008 - 2009

Neuraminidase inhibitor susceptibility testing was not carried out during this Christmas - New Year holiday period.

Canada:
Since 1 September 2008, 20 influenza viruses have been
characterised: three influenza A/Brisbane/59/
2007(H1N1)-like, two A/Brisbane/10/2007 (H3N2)-like,
three influenza B/Florida/4/2006-like and 12 B/Malaysia/
2506/2004-like, the latter was a component of the 2007/
08 vaccine. Six influenza A (H1N1) isolates have been
tested and found to be resistant to oseltamivir.

Influenza Surveillance Program for 2008 - 2009

<HR noShade>Week 52 (Dec 21-27, ?08) Report
This Week"s Activity Level is:


<TABLE cellPadding=2 width="95%" align=center border=1><TBODY><TR><TD vAlign=top bgColor=#ffff00 colSpan=2>
?Local?
Reports from Sentinel Providers indicate an elevated level of influenza-like illness in one surveillance region the State AND there are now lab-confirmed cases of influenza.)


</TD></TR><TR><TD vAlign=top>Reports of visits for influenza-like illness (ILI) to sentinel providers. This week, a total of 59 visits for ILI were reported by 7 providers. The median percent of ILI visits in Maryland was 1.5%. This is below the state baseline of 3.6%.
Sentinel providers are health care providers who report to us the proportion of patient visits for influenza like illness. Because of the great variability in reported ILI proportions among providers each week, the median ILI is used instead of the average. Half of the ILI reports were below the median and half were above.
If you are interested in becoming a sentinel provider, please feel free to contact us at flu@dhmh.state.md or by phone at 410-767-6700.

</TD></TR><TR><TD vAlign=top>Reports of rapid influenza tests from clinical laboratories. During week 52, a total of 255 rapid influenza tests were reported by 9 reporting clinical laboratories. Of these, 18 tests (7.1%) were positive.
Because the sensitivity and specificity of rapid flu tests vary with the prevalence of influenza in the population*, rapid flu tests performed before the first DHMH lab-confirmed case are not counted as confirmed cases for the purpose of surveillance. Now that the DHMH laboratory has confirmed a case by reference methods, all rapid influenza tests will be counted as confirmed cases.

</TD></TR><TR><TD vAlign=top>Reports of reference testing on submitted specimens from the Public Health Laboratory. During week 52, a total of 19 specimens were submitted for testing at the DHMH laboratory. One (5.3%) of these were positive for influenza. This season, a total of 130 specimens have been submitted for testing at the DHMH laboratory. Of these, 7 (5.4%) have been positive by PCR. Four specimens (3.1%) were positive for influenza Type A, and three specimens (2.3%) were positive for influenza Type B.
For the purpose of influenza surveillance, cases are counted as ?confirmed? when they are based on more reliable reference test methods (PCR or culture) performed by the DHMH lab, or are based on other techniques such as rapid test for the detection of influenza antigen AFTER the DHMH lab has confirmed its first case of the season.
This is done because the sensitivity and specificity of rapid flu tests vary with the prevalence of influenza in the population*, and are less reliable when prevalence is low. This season, all positive clinical laboratory results from week 46 onward (45) are counted as confirmed cases, and of course, all the positive DHMH lab results (3).
The seven positive specimens identified by the DHMH lab have been typed as influenza A (4, 57%) and influenza B (3, 43%). To date, the CDC laboratory has identified two as type A (H1N1) Brisbane-like and another as type B Florida-like. Both strains are components of this season?s influenza vaccine. The type A (H1N1) isolate was found to be resistant to Oseltamivir (Tamiflu ?) but sensitive to Adamantanes and Zanamivir.

Re: Seasonal Flu 2008 - 2009

Laboratory Data
Two WHO/NREVSS collaborating laboratories in Washington reported data for week 50. Three of the 183 (1.6%) specimens tested were positive for influenza. One was influenza A(H3N2) and two were influenza A(unknown subtype). To date, eight specimens tested by collaborating laboratories in Washington have been positive for influenza (two A-H1, one A-H3, four A-unknown subtype, and one B) since the start of the influenza surveillance season.
In the Pacific Region, six WHO/NREVSS collaborating laboratories reported testing 317 specimens during week 50. Twelve (3.8%) were positive (8 A-H1, 1 A-H3, and 3 A-unknown subtype). Last week 2.6% of specimens tested were positive for influenza. Since the beginning of influenza surveillance season, 3.5% of all specimens tested have been positive for influenza. The table and chart below show cumulative influenza isolates from the Pacific Region reported by WHO/NREVSS collaborating laboratories.

Re: Seasonal Flu 2008 - 2009

what are the chances of brisbane flu,i think that was what is was called,the one they have had in australia.that hit people quite hard,is it still around and what are the chances of it reaching the uk if it is.......?.


one more question if anyone can answer it please there has been a chesty cough virus going around the uk,with no other symptoms just those,any idea what it is.people get it and i thought if you had,had it your body would have a defence against you getting it again but it doesnt i have family and friends who have had this more than once.thanks for any advice.

Both influenza sub-types are from Brisbane. H1N1 is Brisbane/59 while H3N2 is Brisbane/10. UK has both but 90% of infleunza A is H3N2.

However, UK also has the norovirus, which isn't flu and produces GI symtoms. There are also other respiratory viruses like RSV, which also are not flu.

Re: Seasonal Flu 2008 - 2009

Of the 608 specimens tested since the beginning of the 2008-09 flu season, 179 (29.4%) influenza isolates
have been detected by SLD. Of these, 4 (2%) were influenza A (subtype unknown), 166 (93%) were
influenza A(H1) and 5 (3%) were influenza A(H3). There have been 4 (2%) influenza B cases. Select​
isolates were sent to CDC for strain characterization.

Re: Seasonal Flu 2008 - 2009


CDC has reported antigenic characterization results from 21 influenza isolates [11 influenza A/H1, 0 influenza A/H3, and 10 influenza B viruses] received from the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) Laboratory since the beginning of the 2008-09 flu season.
Influenza A/H1 [11]

Eleven (100%) of the eleven viruses were characterized as A/Brisbane/59/2007, the influenza A/H1 component of the 2008-09 influenza vaccine for the Northern Hemisphere.
Influenza A/H3 [0]​
The DSHS lab has not isolated influenza A/H3 from any specimens yet this season.

Three A/H3N2 influenza isolates have been reported during this week.
Latvia
Influenza activity is still very low .Second influenza A virus in this season , has been detected in last week from patient getting ill on the day of returning from England.
Netherlands
First week this season that a substantial proportion of specimens from sentinel ILI patients contained influenza virus: in 5 of 11 specimens A(H3N2) was detected. So far this season all influenza viruses detected in specimens from sentinel ILI patients were A(H3N2).
Switzerland
Influenza A, and exclusively influenza A (H3N2) are detected in Switzerland. Medical consultations remained below threshold last week.

Re: Seasonal Flu 2008 - 2009

EISS - Weekly Electronic Bulletin Week 52 : 22/12/2008-28/12/2008 - 01 January 2009, Issue N? 286. Influenza season started in seven countries of Western/Southern Europe. EISS - Bulletin Review

EISS - Weekly Electronic Bulletin Week 52 : 22/12/2008-28/12/2008 - 01 January 2009, Issue N? 286. Influenza season started in seven countries of Western/Southern Europe.


-- Summary:

In week 52/2008, influenza activity of high intensity in Portugal and medium intensity in Ireland, Spain and the UK (England and Northern Ireland) was maintained, whilst activity reached medium intensity in France and Italy.

Most of the viruses isolated so far are type A of which the majority are of the H3 subtype.

Given the current epidemiological and virological situation, and despite lowered reporting over the Christmas holiday period, it is anticipated that in the coming weeks seasonal influenza will continue to spread and become more intense in a number of Eastern-Northern European countries.

Vaccination of those still at risk should be expedited.


-- Epidemiological situation - week 52/2008:

For the intensity indicator, the national network levels of influenza-like illness (ILI) and/or acute respiratory infection (ARI) were high in Portugal and medium in France, Ireland, Italy, Spain and the UK (England and Northern Ireland).

The remaining 17 countries providing data reported low intensity with increasing trends, compared to week 51/2008, in Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Portugal, Spain and Wales.

For the geographical spread indicator, widespread influenza activity occurred in France, Portugal and the UK (England and Northern Ireland), while regional activity was reported in Netherlands, Spain and the UK (Wales) and local activity in Italy.

Sporadic activity was observed in five countries (Belgium, Luxembourg, Slovakia, Slovenia and Switzerland) while no activity was apparent in the other 11 countries reporting for week 52/2008.


-- Cumulative epidemiological situation ? 2008-2009 season (weeks 40-52/2008):

The majority of countries participating in European influenza surveillance continue to report low intensity of influenza activity with sporadic/regional cases at most.

Seven Western/Southern European countries are currently experiencing medium to high intensity which is also reported to be widespread in France, Portugal and the UK (England and Northern Ireland).

The first countries in Europe to report medium intensity of influenza activity (i.e. consultation rates being above the national baseline thresholds that are set at levels usually seen outside the winter period) were Ireland, Northern Ireland and Portugal (in week 49/2008) and England (in week 50/2008).

Subsequently, Spain (since week 51/2008), France and Italy (in week 52/2008) have reported influenza activities greater than baseline levels.

Portugal has reported high activity since week 51/2008.

Generally, the highest consultation rates have been reported for the 0-4 age group, but England, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Portugal, Switzerland and Wales have been reporting high ILI consultation rates in the 15-64 age group compared to the other age groups.


-- Virological situation - week 52/2008:

The total number of respiratory specimens collected by sentinel physicians in week 52/2008 was 435, of which 224 (51.5%) were positive for influenza virus: 218 type A (140 subtype H3, seven H1 and 71 not subtyped) and six type B.

In addition, 223 non-sentinel source specimens (e.g. specimens collected for diagnostic purposes in hospitals) were reported positive for influenza virus: 211 type A (14 subtype H3, one subtype H1 and 196 not subtyped) and 12 type B.

Overall, across Europe detection of influenza viruses was reported from 16 of 21 countries providing virological data for week 52/2008 and included the first 2008-2009 seasonal-influenza detections for Greece and Malta.


-- Cumulative virological situation ? 2008-2009 season (weeks 40-52/2008):

Of 2650 virus detections (sentinel and non-sentinel) since week 40/2008, 2534 were type A (1030 subtype H3, 71 subtype H1 and 1433 not subtyped) and 116 were type B.

Based on the antigenic and/or genetic characterisation of 262 influenza viruses, 233 were reported as A/Brisbane/10/2007 (H3N2)-like, 19 as A/Brisbane/59/2007 (H1N1)-like, six as B/Malaysia/2506/2004-like (B/Victoria/2/87 lineage) and four as B/Florida/4/2006-like (B/Yamagata/16/88 lineage).

These characterisations match the current WHO recommendations for H1N1, H3N2 and B/Yamagata lineage virus components for the Northern Hemisphere vaccine.

Three countries (Norway, Sweden and UK) have reported sequence-based antiviral testing with the majority of those viruses analysed from the UK also being assessed phenotypically for neuraminidase inhibitor susceptibility.

Fifty-eight A(H3N2) viruses have been tested for antiviral susceptibility so far this season; all those tested were sensitive to neuraminidase inhibitors (58 for oseltamivir, 56 for zanamivir) and resistant to the M2 inhibitors (56).

Of 30 A(H1N1) viruses analysed, all were sensitive to zanamivir and 29 were resistant to oseltamivir, whilst all of the 19 tested were M2 inhibitor sensitive.

Both B viruses tested were sensitive to neuraminidase inhibitors (one was tested against both zanamivir and oseltamivir and one against oseltamivir only).

But for oseltamivir resistant A(H1N1) viruses from Norway (two) and Sweden (one), all other viruses tested have been from the UK.


-- Comment:

Six countries are now reporting medium influenza intensity and Portugal has reported maintained widespread high intensity in week 52/2008.

Six of these seven countries are on the western seaboard of Europe, whilst Italy has a Mediterranean coastline.

Whilst some of the neighbouring Central and Northern European countries continued to show rising ILI/ARI consultation rates in week 52/2008 the majority, together with most Eastern European countries, continued to report low influenza intensity.

However, consultation rates for week 52/2008 should be interpreted with caution since this week spans the Christmas holiday period when access to primary care and patient swabbing procedures is likely to have been sub-optimal.

This is reflected in the overall number of sentinel specimens collected for virological testing decreasing from 1062 in week 51 to 435 (a 59% reduction) in week 52/2008.

Despite lower sentinel sampling, the proportion of specimens testing positive for influenza virus detection rose from 32.6% in week 51 to 51.5% in week 52/2008.

With this rising trend, the number of countries, especially in the Eastern-Northern parts of Europe, with levels of influenza activity above their baseline thresholds is expected to grow over the coming weeks.

So far this season, the majority (93.6%) of H-subtyped type A viruses have been H3.

These observations consolidate earlier indications that the 2008-2009 influenza season in Europe will probably be dominated by H3 viruses.


-- Background:

The Weekly Electronic Bulletin presents and comments on influenza activity in the 30 European countries that are members of EISS.

Of these countries, 24 reported clinical data, 21 reported virological data and 18 reported both clinical and virological data to EISS in week 52/2008.

The spread of influenza virus strains and their epidemiological impact in Europe are being monitored by EISS under the aegis of the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control in Stockholm (Sweden) in collaboration with the WHO Collaborating Centre in London (UK).


-- Map

The map presents the intensity of influenza activity and the geographical spread as assessed by each of the networks in EISS.

* Latvia: Influenza activity is still very low. Second influenza A virus in this season , has been detected in last week from patient getting ill on the day of returning from England.
* Netherlands: First week this season that a substantial proportion of specimens from sentinel ILI patients contained influenza virus: in 5 of 11 specimens A(H3N2) was detected. So far this season all influenza viruses detected in specimens from sentinel ILI patients were A(H3N2).
* Switzerland: Influenza A, and exclusively influenza A (H3N2) are detected in Switzerland. Medical consultations remained below threshold last week.
