The European Center for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) said respiratory virus activity in Europe remains above normal reference levels, although there is a downward trend. This is stated in its latest surveillance report, corresponding to the week of March 25-2.
The report indicates that this high activity is due to reported flu cases, but notes that several countries have shown downward trends over the past three weeks.
In general, there is a downward trend in patient visits to a family doctor with respiratory diseases.
As for SARS-CoV2 infections, the situation remains unchanged regarding variants. BA.2.86 remains the dominant variant with a 90.4% share of detected cases. Likewise, given the origins of BA.2.87.1, ECDC considers it unlikely that it will have much impact in the near future.
Regarding avian influenza infections, the ECDC identifies “sporadic cases” of influenza A (H9N2) in humans, mainly in minors and young adults.
The European Center also provides information on cholera, highlighting that there are 39,346 cases and 698 deaths reported worldwide. Mainly in West and East Africa. On this issue, the ECDC assures that the risk of infection for travelers visiting countries in these geographical zones remains low, although sporadic cases have been recorded.
