• Healthcare providers who provide a count of total number of patients seen each week, and the number of patient visits for ILI (fever of 100 or greater with cough and/or sore throat)

2014-2016 Seasons, through Jan 9, 2016

Antigenic Testing

• So far this season, the circulating flu viruses CDC has tested have antigenically matched the 2015-2016 vaccine strains (source: CDC Flu View)

• So far only 11 H3N2 viruses collected in WA this season have been antigenically characterized, but all were the vaccine strain

Surveillance Methodology and IssuesNew Directions in Surveillance

Page 17: Washington State Department of Health Influenza Surveillance Update Vivian Hawkins, MS PhD Washington State Department of Health Communicable Disease Epidemiology

What is Reportable in WA

• Lab-confirmed influenza deaths• ILI outbreaks in long-term care facilities

Page 18: Washington State Department of Health Influenza Surveillance Update Vivian Hawkins, MS PhD Washington State Department of Health Communicable Disease Epidemiology

Additional Data StreamsThis means we need a lot of other ways to look at flu activity: • Sentinel labs• ILINet providers• Syndromic surveillance• Additional lab data:

• PHRAID (DOH system)• WHO/NREVSS (CDC)

Page 19: Washington State Department of Health Influenza Surveillance Update Vivian Hawkins, MS PhD Washington State Department of Health Communicable Disease Epidemiology

Sentinel Labs• Network of labs across WA that send a subset of influenza

positive specimens to PHL for further characterization – Subtyping

• Subset of viruses are then sent to CDC:– Antigenic testing – Antiviral resistance testing

• Viruses are used in vaccine selection– WHO vaccine composition meeting to be held in February– Quiet flu activity so far has meant that CDC does not have as many

viruses on hand as would be ideal to inform the 2016-2017 vaccine– CDC has asked PHLs nationwide to send additional flu viruses

• Please let me know!

Syndromic SurveillanceSyndromic Surveillance, Percentage of Hospital Visits for a Chief Complaint of ILI by CDC Week, Western Washington, 2013-2016

Page 25: Washington State Department of Health Influenza Surveillance Update Vivian Hawkins, MS PhD Washington State Department of Health Communicable Disease Epidemiology

Thinking beyond flu• What else is circulating in the community that

could result in ILI symptoms?

Page 26: Washington State Department of Health Influenza Surveillance Update Vivian Hawkins, MS PhD Washington State Department of Health Communicable Disease Epidemiology

Thinking beyond flu• WHO/NREVSS collects data on several respiratory

(as well as enteric) viruses:– RSV, parainfluenza, adenovirus, rotavirus,

metapneumovirus, rhinovirus, enterovirus, and influenza

• Working to move more WA labs into WHO/NREVSS• Plan to feature information about non-flu

respiratory viruses in weekly flu report– Useful for situational awareness– Crucial when respond to emerging threats (what are

our baselines?)

Moving from PHRAID to NREVSS

• Would like to move labs reporting influenza results in PHRAID (Public Health Reporting of Aggregate Influenza Data) to NREVSS

• PHRAID– Web portal where labs report:

• Number of flu tests run each week• Number positive for influenza A, influenza B, or flu type

unknown • Can also enter RSV testing data

No subtyping data!

Some labs DO have subtype, and can enter that in NREVSS.

Flu Prediction

• When does the flu season start and stop?• How severe will the season be?

Page 33: Washington State Department of Health Influenza Surveillance Update Vivian Hawkins, MS PhD Washington State Department of Health Communicable Disease Epidemiology

Flu Prediction

• When does the flu season start and stop?• How severe will the season be?

Working with UW Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation assistant professor who is experienced in modeling to try to address these questions.

• More to come!

Avian Influenza Update

Page 35: Washington State Department of Health Influenza Surveillance Update Vivian Hawkins, MS PhD Washington State Department of Health Communicable Disease Epidemiology

Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI)• H5NX (H5N2, H5N8, H5N1 reassortant)

viruses were identified in North American birds in late winter 2014-spring 2015.– No human illnesses identified to date– However, potential does exist for human illness– Similar viruses have caused human illness and

death elsewhere

More info from CDC: http://www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/h5/index.htm

USDA Avian Flu Tracking

• 219 HPAI detections in US flocks from Dec 2014-June 2015

• Last detection in WA flocks: Feb 2015 (backyard flocks, game bird farm, also some wild birds).

• 48 MILLION birds depopulated nationwide

CDC/USDA Joint Planning

• In response to the HPAI outbreaks of 2015, CDC/USDA have worked together on a monitoring plan for exposed people– During the 2015 outbreaks, there was not a

uniform plan by which state/local health departments were made aware of USDA staff and federal contractors involved in depopulations

Page 42: Washington State Department of Health Influenza Surveillance Update Vivian Hawkins, MS PhD Washington State Department of Health Communicable Disease Epidemiology

CDC/USDA Joint Planning

• HPAI-exposed people monitored during exposure and for 10 days after exposure

• Antiviral prophylaxis can be considered• Low threshold for testing at PHL• Prompt treatment with antivirals• Infection control guidelines
