Texas Influenza Activity Map - Week Ending January 14, 2012 #1358235 (License: Personal Use)

The map visualizes statewide influenza surveillance data for Texas during the 2011-2012 flu season, using a six-tier legend to denote activity levels-from no reporting (gray hatched) to co-circulating Flu A and B (red). Counties are shaded based on laboratory-confirmed or rapid-test results, with yellow indicating Flu A only, green for Flu B only, and cyan for rapid-test positive flu without subtype confirmation. Data originates from the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) Week 2, 2012.

Used in public health dashboards, epidemiological reports, and CDC/health department websites to inform officials and the public about regional flu trends; supports outbreak response planning and resource allocation during flu season.
