Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a prevalent pathogen of the respiratory tract, posing significant threat to individuals with compromised immune systems, particularly elderly and neonates in hospital settings. The primary objective this study was identify specific period within epidemic season during which healthcare providers can anticipate an increased incidence RSV infections characterize Poland. Molecular biology techniques were employed diagnose samples at Sanitary Stations National...
The aim of the study was to determine level anti-hemagglutinin antibodies in serum patients during 2021/2022 epidemic season Poland. A total 700 sera samples were tested, divided according age into 7 groups: 0-4 years age, 5-9 10-14 15-25 26-44 45-64 and ≥65 100 collected from each group. Anti-hemagglutinin antibody levels determined using haemagglutination inhibition assay (OZHA). results obtained confirm presence for antigens A/Victoria/2570/2019 (H1N1) pdm09, A/Cambodia/e0826360/2020...
BACKGROUND Influenza in children poses a significant health problem worldwide. In this study we investigated 725 cases of influenza and influenza-like virus infection under 14 years age the 2021/2022 epidemic season Poland. MATERIAL AND METHODS The material for (nose throat swabs) was collected during season. We analyzed samples from National Center, Department Research at Institute Public Health NIH-NRI or 16 Voivodship Sanitary Epidemiological Stations across Quantitative polymerase chain...
BACKGROUND:This population study aimed to investigate influenza and influenza-like respiratory virus infections in children during the 2019/20 season coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic Poland. MATERIAL AND METHODS:This analyzed data from National Influenza Centre, Department of Research at Institute Public Health, 16 Voivodeship Sanitary Epidemiological Stations Nose throat swabs were obtained COVID-19 pandemic. Viral RNA detection was performed using quantitative reverse...
In Poland, flu supervision is coordinated by the National Influenza Center at Institute of Public Health—National Hygiene. this publication, we want to determine geographical trends in influenza virus circulation region. A detailed analysis virological and epidemiological data showed course epidemic season as well neighboring countries. The spatial differentiation incidence infection between voivodships was examined, compared countries that border a given voivodship. results show significant...
BACKGROUND:This study aimed to investigate the epidemiology of influenza viruses and that caused influenza-like disease in children under 14 years age 2018-2019 epidemic season Poland, identify public health lessons can be learned. MATERIAL AND METHODS:Nose throat swabs were used obtain samples. The samples analyzed National Influenza Center, Department Research at Institute Public Health-National Hygiene as well 16 Voivodship Sanitary Epidemiological Stations across country. Methods RNA...
BACKGROUND Influenza can be the most dangerous for people in risk groups, example seniors, whom it lead to serious and life-threatening complications. The aim of this research was analyze activity influenza viruses influenza-like patients over 65 years age 2019-2020 epidemic season Poland. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total 1269 samples collected from with suspected or other respiratory (from October 1, 2019, September 30, 2020) were analyzed. test material nose throat swabs during season....
The aim of this study was to determine the level antibodies against hemagglutinin influenza viruses in sera people seven age groups epidemic season 2018/2019 Poland. anti-hemagglutinin determined by hemagglutination inhibition test (HAI). 1050 clinical samples from all over country were tested. highest 10–14 group for A/Singapore/INFIMH-16-0019/2016 (H3N2) and B/Phuket/3073/2013 Yamagata lineage antigens. These results confirm circulation four antigenically different virus strains, two...
BACKGROUND:Influenza is a viral disease causing many deaths each season. With aging, the human immune system becomes weaker, so people over age of 65 years are at higher risk complications after influenza infections. This population study, conducted in Poland, aimed to identify subtypes virus infection and outcomes individuals more than 2016/2017 2019/2020 epidemic seasons. MATERIAL AND METHODS:The research materials were nose throat swabs. Research was 16 Voivodship Sanitary Epidemiological...
The aim of this study was to determine whether the occurrence SARS-CoV-2 pandemic affected incidence influenza in Poland and efficiency SENTINEL surveillance system.The analysis based on virologic data from 2018/2019-2021/2022 epidemic seasons. question were obtained system, which is utilized Poland.In 2020/2021 season, only one positive case confirmed. In season 2021/2022, number cases increased. There a delay peak since start pandemic, observed 14th week 2022. Previously, it recorded...
