Drifted Influenza A and B Viruses Collected by a Water-Based Condensation Growth Air Sampler in a Student Health Care Center during an Influenza Outbreak.

ABSTRACT: A viable virus aerosol sampler (VIVAS) effectively collected viable influenza A and B viruses from air inside a student health care center during an influenza outbreak. The viruses had "drifted" genes, showcasing the usefulness of the VIVAS for air sampling and noninvasive surveillance of viruses in circulation.
