Influenza infection rates peaked at 11.34% in mid-2022, and hemagglutinin evolutionary rates increased 2.1-fold for H3N2 compared with pre-pandemic baselines.
Phylogenetic and genetic diversity analyses evaluated hemagglutinin and neuraminidase gene sequences across 403 respiratory infection samples from Guangdong.
Highlights that continuous molecular epidemiology surveillance is needed, as concealed transmission during public health restrictions may accelerate viral outbreaks.
