CELR Influenza reporting

Hi CELR Team, 

Are there any plans to include Influenza reporting for those organizations that are utilizing the CELR/AIMS feed to states?

Thanks!

Hi Emily,
we are trying to figure out how that will work, since flu reporting is NOT universal across all the states - which is why I had posted the other forum thread to gather the differing requirements, but it will probably take us a bit to figure out how to set this up to accommodate the different state specific rules.

At the moment we are thinking to cover it for panels/when tested in conjunction with COVID-19 testing.
If we could just send all panel results to all PHAs, that would be the easiest, but it doesn't look like that's the case :(

I will keep you updated.

CO only reports hospitalized flu and pediatric deaths - I don't think I replied on the other thread.
