We shared this request example with FAB participants: url_qparams = { "limit": count, "offset": offset, "has_group": "false", "order_by": "-activity", "forecast_type": "binary", "project": tournament_id, "status": "open", "type": "forecast", "include_description": "true", } url = f"{api_info.base_url}/questions/" response = requests.get( url, headers={"Authorization": f"Token {api_info.token}"}, params=url_qparams )
But we don't want to support all these parameters, and the ones relevant are: - order_by - status - project - forecast_type - we ignore this, but assume it's binary - FAB only supports binary for now.

According [to CDC](https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/viruses-types.html):\n\n>Currently circulating influenza A(H1N1) viruses are related to the pandemic 2009 H1N1 virus that emerged in the spring of 2009 and caused a flu pandemic ([CDC 2009 H1N1 Flu website](http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/)) These viruses, scientifically called the \"A(H1N1)pdm09 virus,\" and more generally called \"2009 H1N1,\" have continued to circulate seasonally since then and have undergone genetic changes and changes to their [antigenic properties](https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/professionals/antigenic.htm) (i.e., the properties of the virus that affect immunity).\n\n>Influenza A(H3N2) viruses also change both genetically and antigenically. Influenza A(H3N2) viruses have formed many separate, genetically different clades in recent years that continue to co-circulate.\n\nFor the 2024-25 flu season, the [trivalent](https://www.cdc.gov/flu/whats-new/trivalent-vaccines-2024-2025.html) (three-component) vaccine will target two influenza A and one influenza B virus. During the 2023-24 season, 69.2% of positive specimens [were](https://www.cdc.gov/flu/whats-new/flu-summary-2023-2024.html) influenza A, substantially similar to the 69.1% for the week ended ending May 4, 2024, at which time 97% of all positive cases that would be registered for the season had been tested. Among the 25,390 influenza-associated hospitalizations for the season, a disproportionate number (84.6%) were associated with influenza A, as compared with with 14.8% associated with influenza B.\n\nAccording [to CDC](https://www.cdc.gov/fluview/overview/index.html):\n\n>All public health and clinical laboratories report each week to CDC the total number of respiratory specimens tested for influenza and the number positive for influenza viruses, along with age or age group of the person, if available. CDC presents data from clinical laboratories that include the weekly total number of specimens tested for influenza, the number of positive influenza tests, and the percent positive by influenza virus type.\n\n>Influenza surveillance data are aggregated according to the week the event (e.g., positive laboratory test, outpatient visit, death) occurred. The week starts on Sunday and ends on the following Saturday. Each surveillance participant is requested to report its data to CDC by Tuesday afternoon of the following week. The data are then downloaded, compiled, and analyzed at CDC. [FluView](https://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/) and [FluView Interactive](https://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/fluviewinteractive.htm) are updated weekly on Fridays. \n\nSince the pandemic, the numbers have been as follows:\n\n### FluView Week 18 (beginning of May) - Influenza A %\n\n| Season | Influenza A % |\n|------------|---------------|\n| 2023-24 | 69.1% |\n| 2022-23 | 98.2% |\n| 2021-22 | 98.4% |\n\nLooking at a wider sweep of history, during the 25 years through the 2023-24 season, 11 had two waves of influenza activity.

During the 2023-24 season, 69.2% of positive specimens [were](https://www.cdc.gov/flu/whats-new/flu-summary-2023-2024.html) influenza A, substantially similar to the 69.1% for the week ended ending May 4, 2024, at which time 97% of all positive cases that would be registered for the season had been tested. Among the 25,390 influenza-associated hospitalizations for the season, a disproportionate number (84.6%) were associated with influenza A, as compared with with 14.8% associated with influenza B.\n\nAccording [to CDC](https://www.cdc.gov/fluview/overview/index.html):\n\n>All public health and clinical laboratories report each week to CDC the total number of respiratory specimens tested for influenza and the number positive for influenza viruses, along with age or age group of the person, if available. CDC presents data from clinical laboratories that include the weekly total number of specimens tested for influenza, the number of positive influenza tests, and the percent positive by influenza virus type.\n\n>Influenza surveillance data are aggregated according to the week the event (e.g., positive laboratory test, outpatient visit, death) occurred. The week starts on Sunday and ends on the following Saturday. Each surveillance participant is requested to report its data to CDC by Tuesday afternoon of the following week. The data are then downloaded, compiled, and analyzed at CDC.
