Respiratory Viral Activity

Welcome back to the LA Bugs Respiratory Viral Isolates blog.
The respiratory viral season is just heating up and I will be posting the total numbers from 7 Southern California hospitals and when the RSV season picks up I will be posting the percentage of RSV isolates that are positive.
Currently we are running at 2% positive throughout the region.
Note that the predominant virus remains Parainfluenza (mostly type 1) and that we are starting to see a few positive Influenza (both A and B) but not in high numbers.
Stay tuned!
