2009 年美国出现大流行甲型 H1N1 流感病毒 (pH1N1) 后，社区中 pH1N1 的发病率尚不清楚，因为并非所有流感患者都会就医。为了更好地估计大流行初期社区中 pH1N1 的发病率，在 10 个州进行了电话调查。 2009 年 4 月，社区流感样疾病发病率为每 100 名成年人 4.7 例（95% 置信区间：2.8-6.6）；一半成年人报告因病寻求医疗护理。此类调查可能是评估普通人群疾病水平的重要工具，包括那些不寻求医疗护理并因此无法使用传统监测方法捕获的人群。
Following the emergence of 2009 pandemic influenza A(H1N1) virus (pH1N1) in the United States, the incidence of pH1N1 in the community was unclear, because not all persons with influenza come to medical attention. To better estimate the incidence of pH1N1 in the community early in the pandemic, a telephone survey was conducted in 10 states. The community incidence of influenza-like illness in April 2009 was 4.7 per 100 adults (95% confidence interval: 2.8-6.6); half of adults reported seeking medical care for their illness. Such surveys may be important tools for assessing the level of illness in the general population, including those who do not seek medical care and are thus not captured using traditional surveillance methods.
