Attached is Maine's monthly influenza surveillance report for MMWR weeks 31-35, ending September 6, 2022. 

At a Glance:

  • # new influenza cases: 25
  • # new novel influenza A cases: 0
  • Most common circulating virus: influenza A

These reports are posted online at https://www.maine.gov/dhhs/mecdc/infectious-disease/epi/influenza/influenza-surveillance-weekly-updates.shtml

Monthly reports will be sent the first Tuesday of each month through the summer. 

As a reminder, influenza can still circulate during the summer months. Due to the inaccuracy of the rapid influenza tests during the off-season, and the increased risk of novel influenza A viruses from agriculture and swine exposure, please send suspect influenza specimens to Maine Health and Environmental Testing Laboratory (HETL) for confirmation. If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to reach out to [email protected]
