Be prepared for the upcoming influenza season!

The influenza season is starting soon in Europe, whereas in Australia, the season is already finishing. According to the surveillance report by the Department of Health and Aged Care published by the Australian government in August, the influenza season in Australia started this year earlier than usual and peaked about three times higher than average1. Although the influenza season in the southern hemisphere does not directly predict the severity of the following season in the northern hemisphere, it may be a warning sign to be prepared in Europe.
