Re: PAHO: Interactive Map and Charts for Western Hemisphere -- Week 6
Week 6:
Caribbean
Dominica and Saint Lucia reported no influenza activity and decreasing or unchanging trends in acute respiratory disease. These countries reported low/moderate intensity of acute respiratory disease and low impact of acute respiratory disease on health care services.
Central America
Nicaragua reported regional influenza activity while Guatemala and El Salvador reported no influenza activity. These countries reported decreasing or unchanged trends in acute respiratory diseases, except Nicaragua which reported an increasing trend. Guatemala reported high intensity and moderate impact of acute respiratory disease on the health care services. The rest of these countries reported low/moderate intensity and low impact on health care services.
South America
Andean
Peru and Ecuador reported widespread influenza activity. Ecuador reported unchanged trends while Peru reported an increasing trend in acute respiratory disease. Low/moderate intensity of acute respiratory disease and low impact of acute respiratory disease on health care services were reported by these countries.
Southern Cone
Influenza activity was reported as widespread in Argentina and regional in Brazil and Chile. The trends of acute respiratory disease were reported as unchanged in these countries. These countries reported low/moderate intensity and low impact on health care services.
Argentina reported a low incidence of ILI this week (less than 0.5 per 100,000 population.)

* In North America, acute respiratory disease activity remained low.
* The Caribbean countries, reported decreasing or unchanged trends in acute respiratory disease.
* Central American countries reported decreasing or unchanged trends in acute respiratory disease.
* In South American countries, Colombia and Peru reported increasing trends of acute respiratory disease.
* From EW 1 to 22, 2010, the Caribbean and Central American countries reported variable circulation of respiratory viruses. In Bolivia, influenza B predominated. Argentina, Chile and Paraguay reported the predominance of respiratory syncytial virus.
* 4 new confirmed deaths in 2 countries were reported (2 in Peru, 2 in Costa Rica); in total there have been 8,427 cumulative confirmed deaths.
Description of hospitalizations(2009-June 2, 2010)
Chile: Median 32 years, highest incidence in age group< 5 years
Costa Rica: Mean 39.5
confirmed deaths (2009-June 2, 2010)
Chile: Median age 44 years; co-morbidities 70.6%
Peru: Median 38; co-morbidities 77.4%
Jamaica has detected an irregular pattern of respiratory viruses circulation. While this difference could represent differing viral circulation patterns, it could also be a result of differing sampling strategies.
