Butler County Weekly Flu Hospitalization Report
Butler County saw three confirmed influenza-associated hospitalizations for the MMWR week ending 11/05/2022. A total of fourteen confirmed influenza-associated hospitalizations for the 2022-2023 influenza season thus far in Butler County.
It is important to keep in mind that influenza itself is not reportable; only influenza-related hospitalizations. Thus, surveillance on influenza and other respiratory illnesses is difficult to track on a local level.
The best way to prevent influenza infection is to get vaccinated.
