COVID-19 hospital admissions peaked between weeks 13 and 15 (first wave) nationally, and again between weeks 31 and 35 (Victoria), with most admissions represented by those above 40 years of age. Discussion: There was an unusually low number of hospital admissions with laboratory-confirmed influenza in this season, compared to recent seasons. This is likely to be due to effective public health interventions and international border closures as a result of a rise in COVID-19 respiratory infections and associated hospitalisations.]]> Tue 13 Feb 2024 12:02:47 AEDT ]]> Influenza epidemiology in patients admitted to sentinel Australian hospitals in 2019: the Influenza Complications Alert Network (FluCAN) https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:52205 Thu 05 Oct 2023 10:15:34 AEDT ]]> Influenza epidemiology in patients admitted to sentinel Australian hospitals in 2018: the Influenza Complications Alert Network (FluCAN) https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:56266 Fri 23 Aug 2024 09:51:55 AEST ]]> Safety of live attenuated herpes zoster vaccine in Australian adults 70-79 years of age: An observational study using active surveillance https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:49361 Fri 12 May 2023 12:35:08 AEST ]]>
