Here are the graphs for Week 5 from Kansas. ILI percent is climbing steadily, but the number of samples tested dropped from 31 in Week 4 to 13 in Week 5, so it's difficult to tell which strain is causing the increased ILI. The percent positive is also increasing:

Week - positive/total tested - percent positive

Week 1 - 9/17 - 53%
Week 2 - 9/16 - 56%
Week 3 - 13/20 - 65%
Week 4 - 23/31 - 74%
Week 5 - 11/13 - 85%

The only information on the Kansas weekly update that has Week 7 data is the isolates chart. It appears that pH1N1 is increasing in both numbers and proportion to other strains.

88% positive, which is the highest this season.
