Prediction Confidence97%

The U.S. cumulative influenza-associated hospitalization rate for Week 21 is expected to fall between 85 and 90 per 100,000 population when the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention releases its latest FluView and FluSurv-NET data on June 5, 2026.

The figure would reflect the national burden of flu-related hospital admissions tracked through the CDC’s surveillance network, offering a late-season measure of how severe the 2025-26 influenza season has been. Public health officials and hospital systems use the weekly data to assess strain on care capacity and compare current activity with prior flu seasons.
