Dear Sir or Madam,

I note the availability of your comprehensive weekly pandemic influenza epidemiological report on the Health Protection Agency website; however I would be grateful if you could provide me with the following summary information (which does not appear in the weekly reports) as a Freedom of Information request:

1. Total number of H1N1 influenza cases in England reported by the UK government in 2009 to date

2. Number of laboratory tests carried out for suspected H1N1 influenza in England in 2009 to date

-- 2a. Number of these tests that have proved positive for H1N1 influenza

-- 2b. Number of these tests that have proved positive for a strain of influenza other than H1N1

-- 2c. Number of these tests that have proved negative for any type of influenza.

3. The total number of completed questionnaires submitted to the National Flu Pandemic Service in England by telephone and via the www.pandemicflu.direct.gov.uk website since its establishment

-- 3a. The total number of these questionnaires that led to a diagnosis of H1N1 influenza infection

-- 3b. The total number of these questionnaires that led to a diagnosis of influenza infection of a strain other than H1N1

-- 3c. The total number of these questionnaires that did not lead to a diagnosis of any type of influenza.

With thanks for your assistance with the above,

Yours faithfully,

Gavin Dee
