The main objective of this study is to identify and characterize the determinants of influenza severity in developing countries with special emphasis on the role of viral, bacterial and parasitic co-infections.
The first patients have been included in the prospective multicenter case-control study about the severity of influenza implemented in the Institut Pasteur International Network in Asia (Cambodia) and Africa (Cameroon, Madagascar, Senegal).
