European Respiratory Virus Surveillance Summary (ERVISS)

Weekly integrated respiratory virus surveillance indicators for influenza, RSV, and SARS-CoV-2 across Europe from ECDC ERVISS.

About

The European Respiratory Virus Surveillance Summary (ERVISS) is an integrated weekly surveillance report co-produced by the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) and the WHO Regional Office for Europe. ERVISS integrates epidemiological and virological indicators for influenza, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and SARS-CoV-2, reporting primary care consultation rates, hospital admissions, intensive care unit occupancy, and testing positivity across EU/EEA countries.

Through Fibric, an operator references weekly European respiratory virus consultation rates and hospital strain metrics, proposing cross-border workforce shift balancing, indoor ventilation adjustments, and preventive health advisories across European operational sites.

This is a reference listing. It documents what Fibric would read from European Respiratory Virus Surveillance Summary (ERVISS) and what it could propose, based on the publisher's published interfaces. Fibric builds it under a managed deployment when you request it; selecting it here installs nothing.

Inputs

  • Primary care consultation rates for acute respiratory infection (ARI) and influenza-like illness (ILI) across European countries
  • Laboratory testing positivity rates for influenza, SARS-CoV-2, and RSV from sentinel primary care practices
  • Severe disease surveillance tracking weekly hospital and ICU admissions for respiratory virus infections
  • Virological characterization tables tracking circulating influenza lineages, SARS-CoV-2 variants, and antiviral resistance
  • Open CSV dataset downloads hosted in the ECDC GitHub repository under the European Union Public Licence (EUPL)

Proposed actions

Read-only. This feed informs operators; it changes nothing.

Proposed actions are target capabilities. Every action runs propose-first and needs a validated deployment and the appropriate permissions.

What you can build

  • Adjust European workplace shift plans during winter epidemic waves

    Monitor weekly ERVISS primary care ARI consultation rates across EU states, proposing pre-scheduled shift coverage and flexible remote work options for affected facilities.

    With Shift Coverage, Open Shift Offer

  • Tune facility ventilation setpoints based on local viral activity

    Track national respiratory positivity rates in Europe, proposing increased outdoor air exchange rates and indoor air quality filter inspections during seasonal transmission peaks.

Requirements

  • CSV ingestion workflow to parse weekly surveillance dataset files from ECDC GitHub or web portal
  • Country code mapping matching ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 European state codes to company facilities
  • Handling of ISO year-week date formats (e.g. 2026-W38) for temporal alignment with operational schedules
Authentication
None. ERVISS surveillance datasets and GitHub repository tables are openly accessible without authentication, tokens, or registration.

Limits

  • Data updates weekly on Thursday afternoons reflecting observations compiled across the preceding surveillance week
  • Surveillance systems and healthcare-seeking behaviors vary between EU/EEA member states, affecting raw rate comparability
  • Primary data access relies on tabular GitHub releases rather than an interactive REST query API

Questions and answers

What pathogens are monitored through ERVISS?
ERVISS tracks three primary respiratory pathogens simultaneously: influenza viruses, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and SARS-CoV-2.
How frequently is ERVISS published?
ECDC and WHO Europe publish the ERVISS surveillance summary and accompanying open CSV datasets weekly every Thursday afternoon.
What license governs ECDC ERVISS data?
Datasets are published under the European Union Public Licence (EUPL v1.2), permitting open reuse and commercial integration.
