U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is one of the major operating components of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. CDC works to protect America from health, safety and security threats, both foreign and in the U.S. Whether diseases start at home or abroad, are chronic or acute, curable or preventable, human error or deliberate attack, CDC fights disease and supports communities and citizens to do the same. CDC increases the health security of the United States. As the nation’s health protection agency, CDC saves lives and protects people from health threats. To accomplish its mission, CDC conducts critical science and provides health information that protects the nation against expensive and dangerous health threats, and responds when these arise.

      This dataset presents the population-based surveillance for laboratory-confirmed influenza-associated hospitalizations in children (persons younger than 18 years) and adults. The FluSurv-NET's current network covers over 70 counties in the 10 Emerging Infections Program (EIP) states (CA, CO, CT, GA, MD, MN, NM, NY, OR, and TN) and three additional states through the Influenza Hospitalization Surveillance Project (MI, OH, and UT). The network represents approximately 9% of US population i.e. 29 million people. Cases are identified by reviewing hospital, laboratory, and admission databases and infection control logs for patients hospitalized during the influenza season with a documented positive influenza test (i.e., viral culture, direct/indirect fluorescent antibody assay (DFA/IFA), reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), or a rapid influenza diagnostic test (RIDT)).Data gathered are used to estimate age, racial/ethnic and sex-specific hospitalization rates on a weekly basis and describe characteristics of persons hospitalized with influenza illness. Laboratory-confirmation is dependent on clinician-ordered influenza testing. Therefore, the rates provided are likely to be underestimated as influenza-related hospitalizations can be missed due to test availability and provider or facility testing practices. Note- In all influenza seasons except 2009-10 and 2021-22, rates reflect cases hospitalized during October 1 – April 30 of each influenza season.
