Background: Despite advances in surveillance and prevention, pneumonia
and influenza (P&I) remain among the leading causes of mortality in the United
States. Elderly adults experience the most severe morbidity from influenza-associated
diseases, and have the highest rates of seasonal migration within the U.S. compared
to other subpopulations. ... read moreThe objective of this study is to assess spatiotemporal
patterns in influenza-associated hospitalizations in the elderly, by time, geography,
and intensity of P&I. Given the high seasonal migration of individuals to
Florida, this state was examined more closely using harmonic regression to assess
spatial and temporal patterns of P&I hospitalizations by state of
residence.
