- French subjects: In France, a subject will be eligible for inclusion in this study only if either affiliated to or a beneficiary of a social security category. -UK subjects and subjects in Spain: Subjects should be in a high dependency or intensive care setting at the time of enrollment and either have severe and progressive illness on approved influenza antivirals, or are considered unsuitable for treatment with approved influenza antivirals. -Subjects who have severe or progressive influenza illness on approved (fully licensed) influenza antivirals, or who are considered unsuitable or inappropriate for treatment with approved influenza antivirals, or who in the opinion of the investigator may benefit from IV zanamivir therapy.

- History of cardiac disease or clinically significant arrhythmia (either on ECG or by history) which, in the opinion of the Investigator, will interfere with the safety of the individual subject.
- Child in care (CiC) as defined below: A child who has been placed under the control or protection of an agency, organization, institution or entity by the courts, the government or a government body, acting in accordance with powers conferred on them by law or regulation. The definition of a CiC can include a child cared for by foster parents or living in a care home or institution, provided that the arrangement falls within the definition above. The definition of a CiC does not include a child who is adopted or has an appointed legal guardian.
