New report will monitor winter respiratory illnesses

Mon, 07 Nov 2022


A new weekly report will monitor the levels of respiratory illness on the Island this winter.

The report will highlight the rates of respiratory illnesses such as influenza, COVID-19 and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) using data collected by Public Health.

The data used will include the number of respiratory illnesses recorded at GPs or the Manx Emergency Doctors Service (MEDS), flu and COVID-19 vaccination statistics and global surveillance data.

Public Health will update the report every Friday, and it will be followed by an online campaign advising people how to stay well this winter.
