“Human Cases of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A(H5N1)—California, September–December 2024” published in MMWR

CDC published Human Cases of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A(H5N1)—California, September–December 2024 ([link removed]) on March 13 in MMWR. A portion of the summary appears below.

Persons with occupational exposure to highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5N1) virus–infected dairy cattle are at increased risk for infection. . . .

During September 30–December 24, 2024, a total of 38 persons received a positive test result for HPAI A(H5N1) viruses in California; 37 were dairy farm workers with occupational exposure to sick cows. One, a person aged <18 years with an undetermined exposure, was the first pediatric patient detected with influenza A(H5) infection in the United States. . . .

Public health agencies should investigate influenza-like illness or conjunctivitis in workers with occupational exposure to animals infected with HPAI A(H5N1) virus. Thorough investigations of all human HPAI A(H5N1) virus infections are necessary to identify potential exposure sources, including monitoring the virus for concerning genetic changes that indicate the potential for person-to-person transmission.

Influenza activity has peaked, but remains widespread; deaths of 134 U.S. children reported so far this season

For week 10, ending March 8, CDC’s Weekly Influenza Surveillance Report, FluView ([link removed]) , showed influenza-like illness activity at high to very high levels in 25 of 39 reporting jurisdictions. This season is a high-severity season for people of all ages. During week 10, 4.3% of outpatient visits were for influenza-like illness, well above the epidemic threshold of 3.0% for the fifteenth consecutive week. Twenty pediatric deaths associated with seasonal influenza virus infection were reported during week 10, bringing the 2024–25 season total to 134 childhood deaths due to influenza.

RESP-NET
Visit the CDC Respiratory Virus Hospitalization Surveillance Network (RESP-NET) ([link removed]) for weekly reports of hospitalizations due to three vaccine-preventable seasonal respiratory viruses: COVID-19, influenza, and RSV. COVID-19 vaccination is recommended for everyone age 6 months and older; RSV vaccination at this point in the season is recommended for certain high-risk adults age 60 through 74 and all adults age 75 years and older. RSV immunization of infants and certain high-risk toddlers with nirsevimab (Beyfortus, Sanofi) is recommended until the end of March.

Influenza Vaccination Dashboard
CDC's Weekly Flu Vaccination Dashboard ([link removed]) shows that, as of March 1, 37.9% of pregnant patients had received influenza vaccination, although coverage rates differ widely by racial and ethnic group. Vaccination coverage was highest among non-Hispanic Asian pregnant patients (53.3%) and lowest among non-Hispanic Black pregnant patients (26.2%). Vaccination during pregnancy is important to protect both mother and infant from the consequences of influenza infection.

CDC recommends everyone age 6 months and older get annual influenza vaccination. Given the high levels of circulating influenza across the country, vaccination remains important for all eligible, unvaccinated people.

Identify pharmacies in your area that may offer influenza and COVID-19 vaccines by entering a zip code in the VaccineFinder on Vaccines.gov ([link removed]) or Vacunas.gov ([link removed]) .

Recap: CDC posts revisions to 17 VISs in compliance with Presidential Executive Order; check that your VIS collection is current

CDC recently posted revisions of 17 VISs, dated January 31, 2025, on its Current VISs ([link removed]) web page. The revisions comply with the January 20, 2025, Presidential Executive Order: Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government ([link removed]) . Each of these VISs was changed so that the words "women," "woman," and "she" replace the words “persons, “person,” and “they” when referring to pregnancy or breastfeeding. Users will also note that the VISs have a new CDC logo.

Web links to the revised VISs are shown below.
Cholera ([link removed]) Influenza, live ([link removed]) Polio ([link removed])
COVID-19 ([link removed]) Influenza, recombinant ([link removed]) RSV ([link removed])
Dengue ([link removed]) MMR ([link removed]) Smallpox/Monkeypox ([link removed])
Ebola ([link removed]) MMRV ([link removed]) Tdap ([link removed])
Hepatitis A ([link removed]) Meningococcal AWCY ([link removed]) Varicella ([link removed])
Hepatitis B ([link removed]) Meningococcal B ([link removed])

Each revised VIS is posted at Immunize.org ([link removed]) to help you provide current VISs to each of your patients before vaccinating them. Federal law allows up to 6 months for a new VIS to be used. For more on this, see You Must Provide Patients with Vaccine Information Statements (VISs) – It’s Federal Law! ([link removed])

Dates of Current Vaccine Information Statements (VISs) ([link removed]) is another useful document to help you ensure that you distribute the most recent VISs.

You can use Immunize.org’s clinical resources (created in 2024) with our own QR code links to VISs. These codes will always link you to the current CDC VIS:
* QR Code Links to All Vaccine Information Statements (VISs) ([link removed])
* QR Code Links to Routinely Recommended Vaccine Information Statements (VISs) ([link removed])
* QR Code Links to Vaccine Information Statement (VIS) Translations: Influenza (Flu) Vaccine (Inactivated or Recombinant) ([link removed])

Translations of the newly revised VISs are not available. When a recipient needs a translation, provide the out-of-date translation along with the current federal VIS in English.

Updated 65+ Flu Defense website offers resources for healthcare professionals serving older adults

Confident healthcare provider recommendations for influenza vaccine are powerfully persuasive. This influenza season has been a tough one and it is not over yet. To help you maximize patient protection, Immunize​.org, in collaboration with CSL Seqirus, updated the 65+ Flu Defense ([link removed]) website.

[link removed]

This helpful site includes information, tools, and tips for communicating with adults age 65 and older about the scope and severity of influenza. Resources include:
* Influenza in Adults 65+: The Facts ([link removed])
* Influenza Vaccination: Questions Patients Aged 65 and Older Frequently Ask Their HCP ([link removed])
* The Importance of Preventing Influenza and COVID-19 ([link removed])

Older adults are at increased risk of severe influenza, COVID-19, and RSV illness, including hospitalization and death, especially if they are not up to date on these vaccinations. A clinician recommendation is the most important reason why a patient will get vaccinated.

Check out the updated 65+ Flu Defense ([link removed]) website to assist your ongoing efforts in protecting this vulnerable population.
