Local Infectious Disease Trends Throughout Idaho
Updated March 9, 2010
RSV activity has been at the peak of the season for some weeks. Some
labs report greater than 50% of RSV tests positive. Hospitalizations for
bronchiolitis have continued at high seasonal numbers.
Very few tests are positive for influenza A H1N1 "2009 pandemic
strain" (formerly termed swine flu), which has been the only strain
of influenza detected since September. The anticipated "second wave"
of the pandemic has not occurred, possibly because of extensive immunization
activities.
