WHO Collaborating Center
The World Health Organization’s (WHO) Global Influenza Surveillance and Response System (GISRS) monitors frequent changes in influenza viruses, aiming to reduce flu disease impact using vaccines that contain currently circulating strains. The GISRS network consists of national influenza centers (NICS) which conduct flu virus surveillance and study influenza disease trends.

Steps to Take if You Get the Flu
If you get sick with flu symptoms, in most cases, you should stay home and avoid contact with other people except to get medical care. If you have symptoms of flu and are in a high risk group, or are very sick or worried about your illness, contact your health care provider (doctor, physician assistant, etc.). You might need antiviral drugs to treat flu.
