Background Information on Recent U.S. Human Cases of Novel Influenza A (H3N2)
Michigan Department of Community Health
December 15, 2011
The 11 cases occurred in Indiana (2), Pennsylvania (3), Maine (2), Iowa (3), and
West Virginia (1); some of these cases have been in clusters or are epi-linked to each other.

CDC is taking this situation very seriously, and surveillance surrounding reported cases is being further enhanced. As a precaution, a vaccine virus has been developed and provided to manufacturers for them to begin vaccine production
should that become necessary.

Questions can be directed to the MDCH Division of Communicable Disease at (517) 335-8165.
Future MDCH updates will be available online at http://www.michigan.gov/flu.
CDC updates are available online at http://www.cdc.gov/media/haveyouheard/.
http://www.michigan.gov/documents/mdch/ ... 1378_7.pdf

The above comments begin to explain the explosion of novel (H3N2pdm11, trH3N2, trH1N2) CLUSTERS in the US.

As noted previously, the clusters involve three different constellations and two different serotypes (trH3N2 and trH1N2)

Announcemmet of 2nd West Virginia trH3N2 will increase confirmed clusters to two. Details at link below
