Key Points

• Continuation of surveillance of severe influenza cases in intensive care

The InVS intends to continue monitoring severe cases admitted to intensive care for the 2011-2012 season. Data collection will begin in November under the same procedures as last year. The individual form for all confirmed/probable influenza cases admitted to intensive care must be sent to the Cire (fax no.: 02 38 77 47 41)

• Mortality and Morbidity Indicators

Data from SOS Médecins de Tours has only recently been incorporated, which is why the graphs (showing trends over 3 months) cannot yet include them.

• National alerts
