摘要
We report an influenza outbreak in a 75-bed rehabilitation centre and present the detailed microeconomic impact that it had during the season 2016/2017. The direct medical, direct non-medical and indirect costs were calculated. The outbreak included 18 patients with influenza and 8 contact patients, leading to 86 days with isolation precautions. During the outbreak month, 25 (15%) employees were absent from work for 89 days (mean 3.6 days, SD +/- 1.8), and during the entire influenza season 33 for 175 (5.3 +/- SD 4.6) days, respectively. The economic burden related to the outbreak was 114 373 CHF (106 890 euro, 112 131 $).
