Abstract:	Through a joint effort of a team of three private GPs, the Department of Public Health and the Department of Virology at SLH, an attempt was made to survey the influenza season in Malta through epidemiological and virological means. The main objectives of the endeavour were: 1. Enhancing the process of influenza notification 2. Describing the epidemiology from private practitioners' perspectives 3. Obtaining virological evidence to support epidemiological findings 4. Piloting for the first time sentinel surveillance in general
