Influenza-Like Illness (ILI) continues to track lower than the mild 2015-16 and 2011-12 seasons.
Finally enough hospitalizations to report. The 16-week national total in the FluNet catchment is 136 lab-confirmed hospitalizations. Through week 2 last year (15 weeks) it was 5,786.
Still just one U.S. pediatric flu death this season.
