About Flue Season in the Southern Hemisphere

Influenza activity peaks at the end of August in the majority Australia. Tasmania and the Northern Territory experienced a late peak while Western Australia reported extended increased activity from mid-August through September.

Lucky you Australia, Brazil and the temperate clients south of the equator! The World Health Organization has reported that influenza activity has continued to decline in all temperate countries of the southern hemisphere, while influenza-like illness has started to increase in many European countries. Seasonal influenza transmission has not yet been detected in the northern temperate zone.

Of course, that doesn’t mean you get off Scott free. The Australian Influenza Vaccine Committee (AIVC) agreed to adopt the WHO recommendations for the composition of the 2014 southern hemisphere influenza season vaccine. This recommendation is consistent with the WHO recommendations made for vaccines relating to the 2013/14 northern hemisphere season.
