Seasonal flu activity remains high in the US, but continued to decline in most areas last week, leading up to Christmas, CDC data shows
CDC estimates that, so far this season, as of last week, there have been at least 20 million illnesses, 210,000 hospitalizations and 13,000 deaths from flu. Among visits to a health care provider last week, 6.1% were for respiratory illness. The cumulative hospitalization rate was more than four times higher than it has been at this point in the season in more than a decade. The number of hospital admissions for flu decreased nationally for the third week in a row.
” Respiratory virus activity remains “high” or “very high” in most states, and public health experts warn that activity may increase again following New Year’s Eve. Flu surged after Thanksgiving, with more than a third of all flu hospitalizations and deaths at the time this season being reported in the first full week of data post-Thanksgiving, and cases also jumped nearly as much.
