In emergency departments and urgent care centers reporting to ESSENCE-FL, the statewide percent of emergency department visits for ILI is at or near typical levels for this time of year in all regions of Florida.
In Florida, the most common influenza subtype detected at the Bureau of Public Health Laboratories (BPHL) in recent weeks has been influenza A (2009 H1N1).
In week 40, 25 of 40 specimens submitted for influenza testing at BPHL tested PCR positive for influenza A (2009 H1N1) and two tested positive for influenza A unspecified. In the 2012-2013 influenza season, Influenza B, influenza A (H3) and influenza A (2009 H1N1) were all detected. All of these are seasonal strains of influenza.
One influenza or ILI outbreak (epidemiologically linked cases of influenza in a single setting) was reported in week 40.
