CDC FluView: 2009-2010 Influenza Season Week 47 ending November 28, 2009

Excerpts:

U.S. Virologic Surveillance:

WHO and NREVSS collaborating laboratories located in all 50 states and Washington D.C., report to CDC the number of respiratory specimens tested for influenza and the number positive by influenza type and subtype. The results of tests performed during the current week are summarized in the table below.

*Subtyping results for the majority of specimens in this category were inconclusive because of low virus titers.

During week 47, seasonal influenza A (H3N2) and influenza B viruses co-circulated at low levels with 2009 influenza A (H1N1) viruses. Over 99% of all subtyped influenza A viruses reported to CDC this week were 2009 influenza A (H1N1) viruses.
