Abstract:The possibility of virus-virus interaction has been hypothesized at the population level, but there are limited data regarding the effects of viral interaction on transmission. This study used data from a prospective household cohort study to examine how viral interaction impacts transmission of influenza A virus (IAV), influenza B virus (IBV), and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). We used two main predictors of transmission: coinfection in the index case and detection of a virus other than a primary virus of… Show more
