During the meeting, it was reiterated that data from the Integrated Disease Surveillance Programme (IDSP) does not indicate any unusual rise in ILI/SARI cases anywhere in the country.This is also corroborated by the ICMR sentinel surveillance data.HMPV, a virus that usually causes symptoms similar to a cold, is one of the many respiratory viruses that can cause infections in people of all ages, particularly during the winter and early spring months.The virus infection is usually mild and self-limiting, with most cases recovering on their own.In the meeting, it was informed that adequate diagnostic facilities are available at the ICMR-VRDL laboratories.The states were advised to enhance information, education, and communication (IEC) efforts and raise awareness among the population regarding the prevention of virus transmission. Simple measures include washing hands often with soap and water; avoiding touching the eyes, nose, or mouth with unwashed hands; avoiding close contact with people exhibiting symptoms of the disease; and covering the mouth and nose when coughing and sneezing.
