Background: Influenza remains a global health challenge, causing significant morbidity and mortality. This study explores the epidemiology of influenza A (IAV) B (IBV) during 2021–2023 winter seasons within targeted Jordanian subpopulation to inform public strategies. Methods: Nasopharyngeal swabs from patients with acute respiratory tract infections (ARTIs) in three major cities were analyzed. RT-PCR was utilized detect common pathogens, specific primers identified IAV (H1N1) pdm09, H3N2, IBV subtypes. Statistical analyses examined subtype frequencies their association demographics coinfection patterns. Results: IAV, IBV, ICV detected 9.4%, 13.5%, 5.5% cases, respectively. Predominant strains pdm09 (55.8%), H3N2 (30.2%), Victoria lineage (98.4%). Coinfections frequently involved Bordetella spp., Staphylococcus aureus, while also showed coinfections Haemophilus influenzae type IAV. Conclusions: The predominance highlights need for strain-specific vaccination. Frequent underscore importance comprehensive diagnostics. Local strategies should focus on increasing vaccine coverage preventive education, especially adults urban populations.
