Infectious virus in exhaled breath of symptomatic seasonal influenza cases from a college community

2017-09-29

Abstract excerpt

Little is known about the amount and infectiousness of influenza virus shed into exhaled breath. This contributes to uncertainty about the importance of airborne influenza transmission. We screened 355 symptomatic volunteers with acute respiratory illness and report 142 cases with confirmed influenza infection who provided 218 paired nasopharyngeal (NP) and 30-minute breath samples (coarse >5 μm and fine <5 μm fra...
