A Robust Parameter Estimation Method for Estimating Disease Burden of Respiratory Viruses
Figure 3
Comparison of annual excess hospitalization rates per 10,000 population and directly observed rates during each of the seven seasons, for (A) sH1N1, (B) H3N2, (C) pH1N1, (D) influenza B, (E) respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), (F) parainfluenza and (G) adenovirus.
Excess hospitalization rates were derived from the Poisson models with the virus proxies of influenza-like illness rates multiplied by virus proportions (ILI×LAB).
