Apisarnthanarak A, Auewaraku P, et al.. Avian Influenza H5N1 Screening of Intensive Care Unit Patients with Community-acquired Pneumonia. Emerg Infect Dis 2006 Nov
From February 1, 2005, to January 31, 2006, we screened 115 adults for avian influenza (H5N1) and influenza A if admitted to an intensive care unit with pneumonia. Using reverse transcription-PCR, viral culture, and serologic testing for anti-H5 antibody, we identified 8 (7%) patients with influenza A (H3N2); none had H5N1. Estimated costs for H5N1 screening were $7,375.
