A study that investigated the effects of meteorological variations on the activity of influenza A and B in 11 sites across different climate regions, finding that the association between meteorological factors and with influenza activity is virus type specific and climate dependent. The heavy influence of temperature on influenza activity across climate zones implies that global warming is likely to have an impact on the influenza burden.
