Abstract

The results of study of the specific features of influenza virus circulation in 2013-2014 in 10 cities of Russia were presented. The results were obtained in basic laboratories of the Center for Ecology and Epidemiology of Influenza, D.I. Ivanovsky Institute of Virology, FSBI «N.F. Gamaleya FRCE M» Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation. The increasing rate of the ARD morbidity was detected during week 9 with further decrease in the morbidity rate till threshold levels reached during week 13. Children 0-2 years old and 3-6 years old were the most involved age group, while the highest rate of hospitalization was found in the age group of 15-64 years old (66%). The influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 and A(H3N2) viruses were the cause of the epidemic, but their activity differed over regions of Russia. The results of study of the antigenic and genetic properties of influenza strains showed for the most of them a close relation to the vaccine strains. Certain heterogeneity of circulating strains and their drift variants was found as well. All the tested strains were sensitive to the oseltamivir and zanamivir, while preserving resistance to the rimantadine. The ratio of the AR D viruses was comparable with the last epidemic seasons.
