休斯敦“哨点”诊所的病毒学监测表明，每年急性呼吸道疾病（ARD）就诊人数的高峰总是与流感病毒活动的高峰相吻合。1981年至1983年间对健康维护组织的访问调查使我们能够计算出在两次中度严重流感流行期间（1981-1982年和1982-1983年）针对ARD的年龄特定访问率。在流感病毒最活跃的时期，每100人中约有12人罹患ARD；学龄前儿童患ARD的风险最大（1981-1982年，27 / 100；1982-1983年，29 / 100），10岁至10岁儿童平均约为10 / 100。在相同的流行病期间，哈里斯县（德克萨斯州）居民因ARD住院的风险约为每10,000人中有10人，年龄在65岁至65岁之间的人最高。
Virological surveillance at "sentinel" clinics in Houston has demonstrated that the annual peak in the number of visits for acute respiratory disease (ARD) always coincides with the peak of influenza virus activity. A survey of visits to a health maintenance organization between 1981 and 1983 allowed us to calculate the age-specific rates of visits for ARD during two moderately severe influenza epidemics (1981-1982 and 1982-1983). During the most intense period of influenza virus activity the rate of visits for ARD was about 12 per 100 persons; the risk of developing ARD was greatest for preschool children (1981-1982, 27 per 100; 1982-1983, 29 per 100) and averaged about 10 per 100 for persons > 10 years of age. The risk of hospitalization with ARD was about 10 per 10,000 persons for residents of Harris County (Texas) during the same epidemics and was greatest for persons > 65 years of age.
