What the paper says
Influenza/ILI significantly impacts the German healthcare system, with older adults and individuals with underlying conditions contributing disproportionately to the observed burden. Risks of severe outcomes and direct costs are highest in older adults, particularly those aged 80+ years, while children with underlying conditions also contribute substantially to the observed burden. These groups are important targets for preventive interventions.
