Table 2.

Onset of influenza A and B and its association with mean values and declines in temperature (per 1°C) and humidity (0.5 g/m 3 )

Parameter Temperature (°C) OR (95% CI) Absolute humidity (g/m 3 ) OR (95% CI)
Mean
1.10 (1.02 to 1.19)
1.25 (1.05 to 1.49)
Max decline* 1.11 (1.03 to 1.20) 1.58 (1.28 to 1.96)

The odds ratios (95% confidence interval) were calculated per 1°C temperature and per 0.5 g /m3 absolute humidity decreases.

*adjusted for the initial level before the decline.
