Respiratory Virus Surveillance Program

Northern Nevada Public Health Respiratory Virus Surveillance Program

The Northern Nevada Public Health (NNPH) respiratory virus surveillance is conducted year-round. The goal is to monitor and measure the impact of respiratory viruses diseases such as influenza (“flu”), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and COVID-19. Surveillance activities include obtaining and dissemination information regarding respiratory virus activity to health care providers, the public, and those concerned with disease control measures.

Respiratory virus surveillance reports are produced by NNPH every week during the typical “flu” season (October-May). This webpage is updated weekly during this time to include the newest respiratory virus surveillance report.

Information and previous reports for influenza and COVID-19 (before October 2024) can be found at their respective surveillance pages: Influenza Surveillance & COVID-19 (Novel Coronavirus).
