The Respiratory Virus Detection Surveillance System collects data from select laboratories across Canada on the number of tests performed and the number of tests positive for influenza and other respiratory viruses. Data are reported on a weekly basis year-round to the Centre for Immunization and Respiratory Infectious Diseases (CIRID), Public Health Agency of Canada. These data are also summarized in the weekly FluWatch report.

In this Respiratory Virus Report, the number of detections of coronavirus reflects only seasonal human coronaviruses, not the  novel pandemic coronavirus (SARS-CoV2) that causes COVID-19. For information on COVID-19, see the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19): Outbreak update.

The data in the RVDSS report represent surveillance data available at the time of writing. Missing data are denoted by N.A.

Specimens from Yukon (YT), Northwest Territories (NT) and Nunavit (NU) are sent to reference laboratories in other provinces and reported results reflect specimens identified as originating from  YT, NT or NU.

Results from British Columbia comprise of specimens from the following sites: BC Children's and Women's Hospital, Children's and Women's Hospital Laboratory, Fraser Health Medical Microbiology Laboratory, Island Health, Providence Health Care, Powell River Hospital, St. Paul's Hospital, Vancouver General Hospital, Victoria General Hospital, BCCDC Public Health Laboratory, Interior Health Authority sites and Northern Health Authority sites.

Delays in the reporting of data may cause data to change retrospectively.

Influenza co-detections may cause the sum of A(H1N1)pdm09, A(H3), and A(UnS) positive results to exceed the sum of Total Flu A Positive results.

The data in the RVDSS report represent surveillance data available at the time of writing. Missing data are denoted by N.A.

Specimens from YT, NT and NU are sent to reference laboratories in other provinces and reported results reflect specimens identified as originating from YT, NT or NU.

Results from British Columbia comprise of specimens from the following sites: BC Children's and Women's Hospital, Children's and Women's Hospital Laboratory, Fraser Health Medical Microbiology Laboratory, Island Health, Providence Health Care, Powell River Hospital , St. Paul's Hospital, Vancouver General Hospital, Victoria General Hospital, BCCDC Public Health Laboratory, Interior Health Authority sites and Northern Health Authority sites.

Delays in the reporting of data may cause data to change retrospectively.

Due to reporting delays, the sum of weekly report totals do not add up to cumulative totals.

Influenza co-detections may cause the sum of A(H1N1)pdm09, A(H3), and A(UnS) positive results to exceed the sum of Total Flu A Positive results.
