Mit großer Wahrscheinlichkeit die H1N1 bei **Umgebungsnachweis,** Fieber und Husten und Schlappheit.
Not sure what is meant here. It was confirmed in the environment??
TIA

evidence in the community / prevalent in the community
Might be an option. There are references for 'evidence of community transmission', and community seems to be used more commonly than surroundings or environment. Also lots of hits for community prevalence.

proof/evidence/indication of ambient prevalence
Whether you use proof/evidence/indication depends on the degree of certainty. I think "ambient prevalence" would be an apt rendering especially for a disease (quite a few Google hits for the term).
