| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Transmission dynamics of influenza viruses were analyzed in study sites in three countries; Philippines, Mongolia and Japan. Enhanced surveillance was conducted in Baguio City and Tacloban City in the Philippines and Odate City of Akita Prefecture in Japan, while the community-based cohort study was conducted in Baganuur District of Ulaanbataar City in Mongolia. Through these studies some important epidemiological findings have been obtained, which include; 1) significant role of children in transmission of influenza viruses, 2) transmission and maintenance mechanism of influenza viruses in the Philippines, which is located in tropical area, 3) low incidence of influenza in infants and pregnant women in Mongolia.
