Bayesian inference of reassortment networks reveals fitness benefits of reassortment in human influenza viruses

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Genetic recombination processes, such as reassortment, make it complex or impossible to use standard phylogenetic and phylodynamic methods. This is due to the fact that the shared evolutionary history of individuals has to be represented by ...

Adaptation of Human Influenza Viruses to Swine

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2019
A large diversity of influenza A viruses (IAV) within the H1N1/N2 and H3N2 subtypes circulates in pigs globally, with different lineages predominating in specific regions of the globe.

Attenuation of human influenza a viruses [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 1969
The attenuation of two human influenza A viruses has been carried out, using the selection of inhibitor-resistant strains and multiple passages at low temperatures. A virus related to A2/Tokyo/3/67 was obtained in an inhibitor-resistant form. When this was compared with the inhibitor-sensitive strain in a volunteer trial it was relatively non ...

Reconciling disparate estimates of viral genetic diversity during human influenza infections

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2018
Deep sequencing can measure viral genetic diversity within human influenza infections, but published studies disagree in their estimates of how much genetic diversity is typically present. One large-scale deep-sequencing study of human influenza reported

Influenza viruses [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2012
Avian influenza viruses are the precursors of human influenza A viruses. They may be transmitted directly from avian reservoirs, or infect other mammalian species before subsequent transmission to their human host. So far, avian influenza viruses have caused sporadic-yet increasingly more frequently recognized-cases of infection in humans. They have to

Effects of School Closures, 2008 Winter Influenza Season, Hong Kong

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
In winter 2008, kindergartens and primary schools in Hong Kong were closed for 2 weeks after media coverage indicated that 3 children had died, apparently from influenza.

Influenza Vaccine Effectiveness among US Military Basic Trainees, 2005–06 Season

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
Virtually all US military basic trainees receive seasonal influenza vaccine. Surveillance data collected from December 2005 through March 2006 were evaluated to estimate effectiveness of the influenza vaccine at 6 US military basic training centers ...

Evaluation of Nowcasting for Detecting and Predicting Local Influenza Epidemics, Sweden, 2009–2014

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
The growing availability of big data in healthcare and public health opens possibilities for infectious disease control in local settings. We prospectively evaluated a method for integrated local detection and prediction (nowcasting) of influenza ...
