The Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) Centre for Immunization and Respiratory Infectious Diseases (CIRID) mandate is to prevent, reduce or eliminate vaccine-preventable and respiratory infectious diseases, to reduce or eliminate the negative impact of emerging and re-emerging respiratory infections and maintain public and professional confidence in vaccination programs in Canada.
Enhanced surveillance of influenza and other respiratory infectious diseases is needed in order to accurately track, plan for, and respond to public health issues, as well as to inform public health policy in Canada. Influenza surveillance data are also collected by the PHAC as part of global commitments to international partners, including the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) and the World Health Organization (WHO). In addition, investing and maintaining an enhanced severe outcome surveillance system ensures that this platform, which is essential to Canadian pandemic preparedness, is in place and ready for escalation for the next pandemic.
