While seasonal influenza (flu) viruses are detected year-round in the United States, flu viruses typically circulate during the fall and winter during what's known as the respiratory season. The My Healthy Community Influenza Dashboard has paused the release of data now that the respiratory season has ended, from May 18, 2024 through October 10, 2024. Providers should still maintain case reporting through this time.

Infectious diseases are caused by organisms — such as bacteria, viruses, fungi or parasites. Many organisms live in and on our bodies. They're normally harmless or even helpful. But under certain conditions, some organisms may cause disease.
Some infectious diseases can be passed from person to person. Some are transmitted by insects or other animals. And you may get others by consuming contaminated food or water or being exposed to organisms in the environment. Many infectious diseases, such as COVID-19 and the Flu, can be prevented by vaccines.
