Cases of confirmed influenza are declining but type B diagnoses are in the vast majority. Clinical diagnoses of influenza-like illness increased slightly between weeks. COVID-19 diagnoses are increasing compared to the last two weeks and over a quarter of samples were positive in the previous week.

Due to the increase in the number of Covid-infected people in the community, those who seek services at HVE or come to visit are asked to take good care of infection control and wash and sanitize their hands.
