Summary of UK surveillance of influenza and other seasonal respiratory illnesses21 March 2019 Week 12 report (up to week 11 data)
All-cause mortality
In week 11 2019, no statistically significant excess all-cause mortality by week of death was seen overall and by age group in England. In the
devolved administrations, no statistically significant excess all-cause mortality for all ages was observed in Wales and Northern Ireland in
week 11 and in Scotland in week 09 2019¾ During week 11, influenza continued to circulate in the community with activity indicators decreasing and Below Baseline.
¾ The impact of flu on healthcare services is at Medium impact for hospitalisations and Low for ICU/HDU influenza admissions.
¾ Influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 and influenza A(H3N2) are co-circulating. The Department of Health & Social Care has issued an alert on the
prescription of antiviral medicines by GPsMicrobiological surveillance
Primary care: Two samples tested positive for influenza (2 influenza A(H1N1)pdm09)with a positivity of 16.7% through the
UK GP sentinel swabbing schemes in week 11 2019.
Secondary care: Influenza percent positivity was 13.4%, Above Baseline threshold level, this is a slight increase from 11.5%
in week 10. There were 250 detections recorded through the DataMart scheme (22 influenza A(H1N1)pdm09, 157 influenza
A(H3), 68 influenza A(not subtyped) and 3 influenza B).Secondary
CareCommunity
Thirty-eight new acute respiratory outbreaks have been reported in the past 7 days. Thirty-four outbreaks were reported from care homes
where 12 tested positive for influenza A(not subtyped), 1 human metapneumovirus (hMPV) and 1 co-infection of influenza A(H1N1)pdm09,
hMPV and influenza A(not subtyped). Two outbreaks were reported from hospitals where 1 tested positive for influenza A(not subtyped). Two
outbreaks were reported from schools where one tested positive for influenza B.Primary Care
The rate of influenza-like illness (ILI) was Below Baseline threshold levels. The overall weekly ILI GP consultation rate was
6.2 per 100,000 registered population in participating GP practices for England, this is a decrease from 9.1 per 100,000 in
week 10 2019.In the devolved administrations, ILI rates were Below Baseline threshold levels for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

Vaccination
Provisional data from the fourth monthly collection of influenza vaccine uptake in GP patients shows that in 99.6% of GP practices the
proportions of people in England who had received the 2018/19 influenza vaccine in targeted groups by 31 January 2019 were: 46.9% in
under 65 years in a clinical risk group, 45.0% in pregnant women and 71.3% in 65+ year olds. In 99.4% of GP practices reporting for the
childhood collection the provisional proportions vaccinated by 31 January 2019 were: 43.1% in 2 year olds and 45.2% in 3 year olds.
Provisional data from the fifth monthly collection of influenza vaccine uptake by frontline healthcare workers show 70.3% were vaccinated by
28 February 2019, compared to 68.7% vaccinated in the previous season by 28 February 2018.
Provisional data from the fourth monthly collection of influenza vaccine uptake for children of school years reception to year 5 shows 63.9% in
school year reception age, 63.4% in school year 1 age, 61.4% in school year 2 age, 60.2% in school year 3 age, 58.0% in school year 4 age
and 56.2% in school year 5 age were vaccinated by 31 January 2019.WHO have published their recommendations for the composition of the 2019/20 Northern hemisphere influenza vaccine
International situation
In the temperate zone of the Northern hemisphere, influenza activity continued to be reported with influenza A viruses predominating overall.
In the temperate zones of the Southern hemisphere, influenza activity remained at inter-seasonal levels, with the exception of some parts of
Australia which remained above inter-seasonal levels. Worldwide, seasonal influenza subtype A viruses accounted for the majority of
detections.2 of 12
Community surveillance | Back to top | Thirty-eight new acute respiratory outbreaks were reported in the past 7 days.Acute respiratory disease outbreaks
-Thirty-eight new acute respiratory outbreaks have been reported in the past 7 days. Thirty-four outbreaks were reported from care homes where 12 tested positive for influenza A(not subtyped), 1 human metapneumovirus (hMPV) and 1 co-infection of influenza A(H1N1)pdm09, hMPV and influenza A(not subtyped). Two outbreaks were reported from hospitals where 1 tested positive for influenza A(not subtyped). Two outbreaks were reported from schools where one tested positive for influenza B. -Outbreaks should be recorded on HPZone and reported to the local Health Protection Teams and respscidsc@phe.gov.ukFluSurvey
- Internet-based surveillance of influenza-like illness in the general population is undertaken through FluSurvey. A project run by PHE to monitor ILI activity in the community. - The overall ILI rate (all age groups) for week 11 2019 was 19.4 per 1,000 (45/2,317 people reported at least 1 ILI) (Figure 3) compared to 18.2 per 1,000 in the previous week, with the highest rate seen in the 20-44 year olds (23.7 per 1,000). - If you would like to become a participant of the FluSurvey project please do so by visiting the https://flusurvey.net/en/accounts/register/ website for more information.Medical Officers of Schools Association (MOSA)
& PHE surveillance scheme - Boarding schools in England within the MOSA network are recruited each season to report various respiratory related illnesses including influenza like illnesses (ILI). For the2018/19 season, 21 MOSA schools have agreed to participate
in the scheme, including a total of 6,661 boarders. - The overall rate (all boarders) for week 10 was 0.0 per 1,000 boarders compared to 0.6 per 1,000 boarders in week 09. -Since week 40, there have been 16 outbreaks reported from10 MOSA schools, with a total of 59 ILI cases identified. Of
the 16 outbreaks, 2 outbreaks have tested positive for influenza A (H1N1)pdm09 and 1 outbreak has tested positive for influenza B. - If you are a MOSA school and would like to participate in this scheme, please email mosa@phe.gov.uk for more information. 0 50100

Weekly consultation rates in national sentinel schemes | Back to top |In week 11, the overall weekly influenza-like illness (ILI) GP consultation rate continued to decrease with
ILI rate below baseline threshold levels in England. In the devolved administrations, ILI rates decreased
compared to week 10 and are below their respective baselines in Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales.
GP ILI consultations in the UK
GP In Hours Syndromic Surveillance System (England) -The weekly ILI consultation rate through the GP In Hours Syndromic Surveillance system is at 5.3 per 100,000 in week 112019 (Figure 5).
- During week 11, NHS 111 cold/flu calls and GPOOH consultations remained at pre-epidemic levels. There were further small decreases noted in ED attendances for ILI. GPIH for ILI also continued to decrease and remain below the pre-epidemic threshold. - Figure 5 represents a map of GP ILI consultation rates in week11 across England by PHE centres, with influenza-like illness
surveillance MEM thresholds applied. ILI consultation rates presented for each utLA on the map should be interpreted in context of regional and national ILI activity; as MEM thresholds are calculated (based on previous influenza seasons from 2012/13 onwards) separately for each of the nine PHE centres and utLA rates are then compared to Centre-level thresholds only, therefore utLAs with higher background rates than the Centre may appear to have higher ILI activity. -For further information, please see the syndromic surveillance webpage. Figure 5: Map of GP ILI consultation rates in week 11RCGP (England)
- The weekly ILI consultation rate through the RCGP surveillance was at 6.2 per 100,000 registered population in participating GP practices in week 11 2019, this is a decrease from 9.1 per 100,000 in week 10. This is below the baseline threshold (13.1 per 100,000) (Figure 4*). By age group, the highest rates were seen in 15-44 year olds (7.5 per 100,000) and in 45-64 year olds (7.0 per100,000).
*The Moving Epidemic Method (MEM) has been adopted by the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control to calculate thresholds for GP ILI consultations for the start of influenza activity (based on 10 seasons excluding 2009/10) in a standardised approach across Europe. For MEM intensity threshold values, please visit: UK- In week 11, overall weekly ILI consultation rates across countries of the UK decreased compared to the previous week,
with all countries below their respective baseline threshold levels (Table 1).- By age group, the highest rates were seen in the 45-64 year olds in Scotland and Northern Ireland (8.2 per 100,000
and 8.1 per 100,000 respectively) and in the 15-44 year olds in Wales (10.4 per 100,000).*The Moving Epidemic Method (MEM) has been adopted by the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control to calculate thresholds for
