Delays In trH3N2 Testing and Reports
Posted by: admin : Category: Flu vaccine
These delays include two vital trH3N2 cases. One, A/Pennsylvania/40/2010 was from a case (36M) who developed symptoms on Sept 6, 2010. But, the sample initially tested as seasonal H3N2. More advanced testing, such as an antigen characterization test or sequencing usually involves isolation of the virus, and technical problems led to a five month reporting delay. Consequently, this case was not reported until week 4 in MMWR as well as FluView and the sequence was released April 17, 2011 at GISAID, more than seven months after the infection.
