    Document: Active surveillance for influenza is essential to monitor the impact of seasonal influenza and to detect and characterize emerging influenza viruses. In the United States, surveillance systems rely primarily on medically-attended illnesses. This underestimates true influenza-related disease burden by 50% or more (6) . Individuals may not seek care, diagnostic tests are often underutilized in the community, and hospitalizations may be attributed to chronic conditions exacerbated by influenza (7, 8) . Furthermore, recent studies have estimated that 20% of individuals with influenza infection are asymptomatic but contribute to community transmission (9) (10) (11) .
