Disclaimers:
Positivity percentages are calculated using the moving average of the reference epidemiological week and the two previous epidemiological weeks.
Age groups for ILI and SARI cases of influenza have been classified into categories: children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, due to heterogeneity in age groups among different countries.
Disease severity is calculated exclusively for countries reporting data for both the numerator (number of SARI cases positive for influenza with ICU admission or fatalities) and the denominator (number of SARI cases positive for influenza).
