CDC estimates that, from October 1, 2023 through November 18, 2023, there have been 12,000 to 27,000 flu related hospitalizations. #NIVW#FightFlu https://t.co/UDcJ1i0D1E
So we did a thing @CDCgov - since arriving there I've become slightly obsessed with waste water measurement.....yes💩......we lead the world in how to detect several different kinds of viral activity weeks before they show up in more traditional data sources (labs, ED visits etc)
Wastewater (sewage) can be tested to detect traces of infectious diseases circulating in a community, even if people don’t have symptoms. These data can be used as an early warning that levels of infections may be increasing or decreasing in your community https://t.co/SwdPMe23tz
Based on CDC estimates in the US, patients aged 50+ accounted for more than 67,000 flu -related hospitalizations in the 2021-2022 flu season. Let's work together to stop the spread of influenza and keep our communities healthy. #FluPrevention#StayHealthy
