“…Salgado, Farr, Hall, and Hayden (2002) reviewed 12 influenza outbreaks in hospitals, and reported the patient infection rates ranged from 3% to 50% in wards affected by the outbreaks compared to 0.7-20% throughout the hospital. Outbreaks of influenza B virus have also been reported in hospitalized older adults (Seale et al, 2009;Van Voris, Belshe, & Shaffer, 1982). Other respiratory viruses including adenovirus, rhino/enterovirus, metapneumovirus and RSV could also cause nosocomial infections in pediatric and adult patients (Chow & Mermel, 2017;La Rosa, Fratini, Della Libera, Iaconelli, & Muscillo, 2013;Sakata et al, 1998;Silva Cde et al, 2012;Yang et al, 2014).…”
