The Yakima Influenza Epidemiology of Livestock & Dairy workers Study

The Yakima Influenza Epidemiology of Livestock and Dairy workers (YIELD) Study team at the University of Washington is seeking volunteers who spend time with animals and have respiratory symptoms or a suspected respiratory infection to join the YIELD study.

Our team is interested in learning more about what germs spreading in the region. Participation in YIELD will involve giving a nasal swab and an optional blood sample and completing electronic surveys.
