The California Department of Health (CDPH) is releasing this Health Advisory to provide guidance to healthcare providers who are planning for and responding to an anticipated surge in illnesses due to respiratory viruses, particularly in response to recent rises in SARS-CoV-2 transmission and anticipated seasonal rises in other respiratory pathogens. While local influenza and RSV transmission remain low at this time, and SARS-CoV-2 hospitalizations may be plateauing, seasonal activity of those viruses is expected to increase in the coming weeks to months.
