Estimates of global seasonal influenza-associated respiratory mortality: a modelling study

A. Danielle Iuliano, +138 more
- 13 Dec 2017 - 
TL;DR: These global influenza-associated respiratory mortality estimates are higher than previously reported, suggesting that previous estimates might have underestimated disease burden.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimates of US influenza-associated deaths made using four different methods

TL;DR: A wide range of methods have been used for estimating influenza‐associated deaths in temperate countries, and direct comparisons of estimates produced by using different models with US mortality data have not been published.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influenza Illness and Hospitalizations Averted by Influenza Vaccination in the United States, 2005–2011

TL;DR: Influenza vaccination programs in the US produce a substantial health benefit in terms of averted cases, clinic visits and hospitalizations and underscore the potential for additional disease prevention through increased vaccination coverage, particularly among nonelderly adults, and increased vaccine effectiveness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimating Influenza-Associated Deaths in the United States

TL;DR: It is suggested that discrepancies between the recent estimate and previous estimates of the number of influenza-associated deaths are attributable primarily to the use of different outcomes and methods, and that secondary bacterial infections will likely result in substantial morbidity and mortality during a future influenza pandemic, despite medical progress.
