That's less than 10 percent hospitalization.
I would love to see where on the CDC website you got your data, because I got mine from the recent influenza surveillance report
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/index.htm |

I presume that FAX is using the following:
No. of positive specimens = 222,552
CDC estimates that so far this season there have been at least 36 million flu illnesses, 370,000 hospitalizations and
22,000 deaths from flu.
