Organization: Public Health Agency of Canada

Please note that the Respiratory Virus Detection Surveillance System (RVDSS) is a sentinel laboratory surveillance system that does not capture all respiratory virus testing performed in Canada; differences may exist between the data presented in this report and provincial/territorial epidemiological reports. SARS-CoV-2 laboratory data is included in this report to facilitate the comparison of positivity with other respiratory viruses. Interpretation should be made with caution as testing practices differ among viruses.

For additional SARS-CoV-2 surveillance information, please refer to the COVID-19 epidemiology update.

Overall summary

In week 3 (week ending January 20, 2024) in Canada, participating RVDSS laboratories reported 4,337 detections of SARS-CoV-2 from 38,152 tests (11.4% positive). Among non-SARS-CoV-2 respiratory viruses, where test volumes are lower (range of 9,233 to 34,756 tests), activity of flu is highest but below historical averages.

  • National SARS-CoV-2 percent positivity has been decreasing since mid-December 2023.
  • Activity of influenza A is similar to the previous week, and is below historical averages for this time of year (3,576 detections; 10.3% positive). Activity of influenza B remains low (269 detections; 0.8% positive).
  • Activity of RSV remains slightly below expected levels for this time of year (1,840 detections; 6.0% positive).
  • Activity of all other non-SARS-CoV-2 respiratory viruses is low and near expected levels typical of this time of year.
  • 35/35 sentinel laboratories reported surveillance data

The data in the RVDSS report represent surveillance data available at the time of writing. Data missing from the current week are denoted by N.R. Data not collected by reporting lab denoted by N.C.

Some specimens from Yukon (YT) are sent to reference laboratories in British Columbia and reported results reflect specimens identified as originating from YT.

Results from British Columbia comprise of specimens from the following sites: Children's and Women's Hospital Laboratory, Fraser Health Medical Microbiology Laboratory, Island Health, Providence Health Care, Vancouver Coastal Health sites, Victoria General Hospital, BCCDC Public Health Laboratory, Interior Health Authority sites and Northern Health Authority sites.

Due to different testing protocols of laboratories across Canada, influenza A subtype detection counts may not be included in total influenza A detection counts. Total influenza A and B positive counts are used to calculate percentage of tests positive.

Delays in the reporting of data may cause data to change retrospectively.

The data in the RVDSS report represent surveillance data available at the time of writing. Data not collected by reporting lab denoted by N.C.

Some specimens from Yukon (YT) are sent to reference laboratories in British Columbia and reported results reflect specimens identified as originating from YT.

Results from British Columbia comprise of specimens from the following sites: Children's and Women's Hospital Laboratory, Fraser Health Medical Microbiology Laboratory, Island Health, Providence Health Care, Vancouver Coastal Health sites, Victoria General Hospital, BCCDC Public Health Laboratory, Interior Health Authority sites and Northern Health Authority sites.

Due to different testing protocols of laboratories across Canada, influenza A subtype detection counts may not be included in total influenza A detection counts. Total influenza A and B positive counts are used to calculate percentage of tests positive.

Delays in the reporting of data may cause data to change retrospectively. Due to these delays, the sum of weekly report totals do not add up to cumulative totals.

Positive respiratory virus tests historical comparison

Figure 1: Positive severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), influenza, and respiratory syncytial virus tests (%) reported by participating laboratories in Canada by surveillance week compared to average and range from 2014-2015 to 2019-2020 season
Figure 1

Shaded area represents the maximum and minimum % of respiratory virus tests positive reported by week from seasons 2014-2015 to 2019-2020

Note: Changes to testing practices during the COVID-19 pandemic may cause substantial changes to indicator estimates from previous years. Collection of laboratory testing practice meta-data to understand these changes is ongoing. Interpret trends with caution.

Note: SARS-CoV-2 surveillance was integrated into RVDSS at the beginning of the 2022-2023 season; no prior data is available for historical comparison.

Note: Data from week 11 of the 2019-2020 season onwards are excluded from the historical comparison due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
