COVID-19 and flu in Greece

Week 2026-W42 (12–18 Oct)
COVID-19Rising
  • Hospital admissions 80 → 95 → 114 (W40–W42), rising steadily over three weeks
  • Positivity 10.0% (W42), no official threshold for COVID-19
InfluenzaRising
  • Hospital admissions 22 → 27 → 52 (W40–W42), rising steadily over three weeks
  • Positivity 6.7% (W42), below the ECDC 10% epidemic threshold

Outbreak signal: rising when hospital admissions go up three weeks in a row or flu positivity reaches the ECDC 10% epidemic threshold, epidemic activity when flu positivity stays at 10% or more for two weeks. Positivity alone is too noisy in Greece's small weekly samples.
