Other respiratory viruses

Last updated on Tuesday, 15 October 2024 at 11:34am

Other common respiratory viruses include adenovirus, human metapneumovirus (hMPV), parainfluenza and rhinovirus.

The healthcare data we have for other respiratory viruses comes from a sentinel surveillance system (a data collection method used to monitor trends). This means the healthcare data is not a count of every person being treated for the respiratory virus in hospital. Find out more about data collection for other respiratory viruses.

We update data for all other respiratory viruses shown on this dashboard every 2 weeks on a Thursday at 4pm.
