Washington State Department of Health, Communicable Disease Epidemiology
Please note all data are preliminary and may change as data are updated. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, data reported from the various influenza surveillance systems may not represent an accurate reflection of influenza activity. Results should be interpreted with caution, especially where comparisons are made to previous influenza seasons.
State Summary: Flu activity is low
? Twenty one lab-confirmed influenza deaths have been reported for the 2021-2022 season to date. ? Sixteen influenza-like illness outbreaks in long term care facilities have been reported for the 2021-2022

Influenza Laboratory Surveillance Data
Laboratory Data: World Health Organization (WHO) & National Respiratory and Enteric Virus Surveillance System (NREVSS) Data Reported to CDC
CDC has generated separate graphs of data reported to CDC by public health laboratories (Figure 1) and commercial laboratories (Figure 2). Table 1 combines the data from the public health and commercial laboratories.

Outpatient Influenza-like Illness Surveillance
Influenza-like Illness Surveillance By Region ILI is defined as fever (temp 100F/37.8C or higher) plus cough and/or sore throat. During week 36, 66 sentinel providers in Washington reported data through the U.S. Outpatient Influenza-like Illness Surveillance Network Surveillance Network (ILINet). Of 34111 visits reported, 354 (1%) were due to ILI, below the baseline of 1.8%. It should be noted that in addition to the overarching impacts of COVID-19 on influenza surveillance systems, interpretation of ILINet data for the 2021-2022 influenza season should take into account the following COVID19 impacts: changes in the health seeking behavior at ILINet sentinel sites, changes to provider swabbing at ILINet sentinel sites due to the availability of telehealth and respiratory clinics, and limited ability to distinguish between ILI and COVID-19 symptoms. Figure 3 shows the percent of Emergency Department visits for a chief complaint of ILI or a discharge diagnosis of Influenza for each geographic region in Washington state.
