Traders overwhelmingly back a flu hospitalization rate of 80–90 per 100,000 population for Week 11, 2026 (mid-March), driven by CDC surveillance data from the waning 2025–26 influenza season, where recent weekly rates peaked near 110 before dropping to 92 in Week 9 amid falling test positivity (under 5%) and influenza-like illness (ILI) levels below baseline. Historical post-peak declines in mild-to-moderate seasons, like 2023–24's drop from 105 to 75 over similar weeks, bolster this positioning, with ensemble models from HHS Protect forecasting stabilization around 85 absent surges. Realistic challenges include a late H3N2 variant wave or regional outbreaks in the South, potentially pushing rates above 100, though low wastewater signals reduce this risk.

If the recorded data falls exactly between two brackets, this market will resolve to the higher bracket.
The resolution source for this market will be CDC FluView / FluSurv-NET (see: https://www.cdc.gov/fluview/index.html). If the FluSurv-NET hospitalization rate for the specified week is not released by 11:59 PM ET on the tenth calendar day following the date of the prior FluView weekly report release, this market will resolve to the lowest bracket.
Note: Only the CDC FluSurv-NET cumulative hospitalization rate per 100,000 population for the specified week will qualify, regardless of estimates, projections, state-level reports, or other influenza surveillance metrics published by the CDC or other sources.
