The information is based on testing of influenza virus isolates obtained from cell culture, and intends to provide a profile on the proportion of strains with reduced antiviral susceptibility. The date refers to specimen reception by the laboratory. Numbers and trends presented here should be interpreted in light of the small specimen numbers in particular categories.
