Summary

This study enrolls 422 schoolchildren and their families in Oregon to see if air samplers placed in homes can detect viruses that cause respiratory infections. Participants provide nasal swabs and report symptoms over 14 days. The goal is to learn how well air surveillance tracks household virus transmission, not to treat or prevent illness.
