SARI surveillance

Project description

Support ECDC in establishing an ECDC hospital network sustainable infrastructure to conduct enhanced surveillance of Severe Acute Respiratory Infections (SARI), and to perform influenza and COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness (VE), impact and burden of disease studies

Context situation

Respiratory diseases such as influenza and COVID-19 may result in a large number of severe cases that can overwhelm healthcare capacity and cause several deaths. It is therefore important to have at European level a hospital-based surveillance system to monitor incidence trends, early detect epidemics, identify groups at risk of severe disease and measure the impact of the disease.

Project activities

Identification and development of the ECDC hospital network
