As autumn moves to winter, the WHO/Europe, EC and ECDC are issuing a clear, urgent message: people who remain unprotected against both COVID-19 and seasonal influenza – especially the most vulnerable and at-risk – should take up any offer for vaccination to prevent or mitigate the impact of these co-circulating respiratory infections.
This report presents the results of the 11th round of the external quality assessment (EQA-11) scheme for typing of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC).
This document presents the core protocol for ECDC studies of CVE and IVE against symptomatic laboratory-confirmed influenza or SARS-CoV-2 infection, respectively, at primary care level.
This issue of the ECDC Communicable Disease Threats Report (CDTR) covers the period 6 - 12 August 2023 and includes updates on measles, COVID-19, swine flu, mpox, diphtheria, West Nile virus, avian influenza, dengue, Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever, and invasive meningococcal disease.
