A reduction of ILI cases were seen in Fiji and FSM for the week. The decrease seen in New Caledonia may be due to the decreased number of sites reported for the week.

No changes were seen to the number of ILI cases in Solomon Islands for the week.

Nil ILI cases were reported for the week from the Cook Islands and Tokelau No reports were available from French Polynesia, Niue, Wallis & Futuna, Palau, Pitcairn Islands, Tonga, Vanuatu, Tuvalu, and Samoa for the week.

Surveillance figures are not intended to capture all country cases but to describe trends over time and are invaluable when trends rise beyond country baselines which should then trigger alerts and timely actions to characterize the actual nature and magnitude of the disease.
