NW-PaGe Analyses and Projects
A phylogenetic tree depicting the relation of study sequenced EV-D68 samples to EV-D68 samples deposited in GenBank.
Household Transmission of EV-D68
In this analysis our team and UW Virology looked into the secondary attack rate and factors associated with potential secondary transmission of enterovirus D68 (EV-D68).
Transmission appeared to be from school aged children to adults.
The secondary attack rate was calculated to be 13.6% (95% CI: 6.8-27.5%).

Viral Codetection of
Respiratory Pathogens
This analysis looked to describe the epidemiology of symptomatic respiratory viral codetections.
About 10% of swabs had a codetection, and codetections were most common among children under 18 years of age.

Seattle Network for Influenza and Flu-Like Symptoms (SNIFLS)
The SNIFLS Study enrolled individuals from January - June 2025. Nasal swab specimens from acutely-ill individuals were tested for 26 respiratory pathogens. A total of 248 samples were tested, with rhinovirus being the most prevalent.

Yakima Influenza Epidemiology of Livestock and Dairy Workers (YIELD)
The Yakima Influenza Epidemiology of Livestock and Dairy workers (YIELD) Study was created to learn more about the pathogens circulating in Yakima County, specifically among those working with animals and/or animal products.
