The GIHSN, supported by the Foundation for Influenza Epidemiology, can be a strong platform for severe COVID-19 surveillance and research. GIHSN systematically collects epidemiological data (e.g. clinical characteristics, outcome, etc.) on patients hospitalized with acute respiratory illness. Respiratory specimens are collected on each patient; swabs are stored and most laboratories have capacity to do further analysis. More than 10,000 samples are collected every year in 100 hospitals across 23 sites worldwide. If you are interested to partner with the GIHSN as part of a research project or grant submission, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots.
