Disparate evolution of virus populations in upper and lower airways of mechanically ventilated patients
2019-01-02
Abstract excerpt
In routine surveillance and diagnostic testing, influenza virus samples are typically collected only from the upper respiratory tract (URT) due to the invasiveness of sample collection from the lower airways. Very little is known about virus variation in the lower respiratory tract (LRT) and it remains unclear if the virus populations at different sites of the human airways may develop to have divergent genetic si...
