Virological Surveillance

ESR public health virology laboratory collates, analyses and reports all year round laboratory-based virological surveillance with public health importance from virology laboratories of Auckland, Waikato, Christchurch and Dunedin Hospitals, Microbiology Laboratory of Wellington Hospital and the public health virology laboratory of ESR:

• Influenza and other respiratory viruses
• Enteric and herpes viruses   

Most of the reports on this page stopped being published in 2019 and were replaced by the influenza dashboard https://www.esr.cri.nz/our-services/consultancy/flu-surveillance-and-research.

The only reports that are still being updated are the Influenza Annual Reports and the Influenza Vaccine recommendations.
