I should have included the the prior two weeks; I consider them "spin-up", but you see a short lived peak right at the beginning. I will treat them both ways.

This sequence data feed is pathetic. We got a little hint of a D3 subtype in some data from Wisconsin that might be fueling this.

Thank you for your thoughts and input.

"The plot indicates that we have just gone through the secondary peak..."

Actually, YOUR MAPS Ensemble as presented HERE does NOT show this, although it appears to be the case based on other sources. In the future, are you planning to break out SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza SEPARATELY or combine them into an omnibus infection graph?

It seems 'curious' that very little sequence data from human influenza cases are being publicized.

However, recent actions by the states mandating subtyping of influenza cases where bird flu is suspected seems to fit the old adage of "Watch what they do, not what they say"

Rather discouraging that we are about to enter another SARS-CoV-2 wave, but it's better to know than not to know. In this age of disinformation, thanks for providing situational awareness to those of us who want the straight scoop.
