| Additional information regarding sample selection. | Enrolment was carried out by a sub-group of physicians that are part of the Sentinelles network in the UMR-S 707 unit. |
| Database objective | |
| Main objective | To explore cross-protective immunity involving different A/H1N1 viruses (seasonal and pandemic) and the seasonal A/H3N2 virus through data gathered from this study. This study also aims to identify the epidemiological, immunological and virological factors that determine the risk of recurring influenza infections as well as characterise the population's herd immunity and its evolution. |
| Inclusion criteria | The "influenza" group comprises of patients enrolled after general medical consultation for influenza-like illness during seasonal epidemic. The "non-influenza" group comprises of patients enrolled after general medical consultation during seasonal epidemic for a reason other than influenza, yet that was acute in nature e.g. infectious diarrhoea, minor trauma. |

Yes |
| Details on monitoring of participants | Systematic annual visit to the treating physician, carried out between May and October of each follow-up year (2008, 2009, 2010) to update clinical data, collect data for respiratory infections during the winter preceding annual follow-up visit, and annual serology. It is requested that patients consult their physician in the case of influenza-like illness so that a virological and serological sample can be taken. |
