Double trouble? When a pandemic and seasonal virus collide
As healthcare capacities in the US and Europe reach their limits due to a surge in the COVID-19 pandemic, both regions enter the 2020-2021 influenza season. Southern hemisphere countries that had suppressed influenza seasons provide a hopeful example, but the lack of reduction in influenza in the 20...

description | As healthcare capacities in the US and Europe reach their limits due to a surge in the COVID-19 pandemic, both regions enter the 2020-2021 influenza season. Southern hemisphere countries that had suppressed influenza seasons provide a hopeful example, but the lack of reduction in influenza in the 2019-2020 influenza season and heterogeneity in nonpharmaceutical and pharmaceutical interventions show that we cannot assume the same effect will occur globally. The US and Europe must promote the implementation and continuation of these measures in order to prevent additional burden to healthcare systems due to influenza. |
