|
This report summarises the information obtained by surveillance of influenza activity in England and Wales from 30 October 1993 to 24 June 1994 (weeks 93/44 to 94/25). A moderate epidemic of influenza occurred, which was earlier than in recent years. It followed an increase in influenza activity reported in Scotland in early October. Activity spread from north to south. Influenza A(H3N2) viruses accounted for over 98% of isolates typed, but a few strains of influenza B were identified. |
