Popis: | Background The Cambodian National Influenza Center (NIC) was established in August 2006 for the purpose of documenting the dynamics of influenza disease and to virologically characterize the circulating strains. To continuously monitor influenza activity, a hospital-based sentinel surveillance system for ILI (influenza-like illness) with a weekly reporting and sampling scheme was initially established in five sites in 2006. In addition, hospitalbased surveillance of acute lower respiratory infection (ALRI) cases was established in 2 sites. |
