Hi DJ

 

Thank you for your request.  2018 is the most recent year for which cause
of death information is available.  I’d expect the preliminary 2019 data
to be released in December.

 

The number of deaths with an underlying cause of death of influenza
(ICD-10 codes J09-J11) were:

Year       Deaths

2000       2

2001       9

2002       9

2003       12

2004       28

2005       14

2006       17

2007       10

2008       9

2009       49

2010       29

2011       17

2012       42

2013       16

2014       48

2015       60

2016       50

2017       121

2018       73

 

Please note that the 2018 data is provisional.

 

I hope this helps.  Please contact me if you have any questions.

 

Cheers
