Abstract
Concurrent Influenza and Shigellosis Outbreaks, Papua New Guinea, 2009
Highlights
In developing countries, seasonal influenza has been associated with a high proportion of deaths, especially among remote populations
High mortality rates during influenza outbreaks in the developing setting have been ascribed to a lack of access to antimicrobial drugs to treat cases of secondary pneumonia and lack of access to health care in general [1]
Endemic shigellosis is responsible for ≈10% of all cases of diarrhea among children
