Human Parainfluenza Virus in Homeless Shelters before and during the COVID-19 Pandemic, Washington, USA.


ABSTRACT: To determine the epidemiology of human parainfluenza virus in homeless shelters during the COVID-19 pandemic, we analyzed data and sequences from respiratory specimens collected in 23 shelters in Washington, USA, during 2019-2021. Two clusters in children were genetically similar by shelter of origin. Shelter-specific interventions are needed to reduce these infections.
