Ventilation does not affect influenza virus transmission efficiency in a ferret playpen setup

Nicole C. Rockey,
Valerie Le Sage,

et al.

Abstract: Sustained community spread of influenza viruses relies on efficient person-to-person transmission. Current experimental transmission systems do not mimic environmental conditions (e.g., air exchange rates, flow patterns), host behaviors or exposure durations relevant to real-world settings. Therefore, results from these traditional systems may not be representative of influenza virus transmission in humans. To address this pitfall, we developed a modified, more realistic transmission setup and used it to inves… Show more
