Inferring Influenza Infection Attack Rate from Seroprevalence Data

Inferring Influenza Infection Attack Rate from Seroprevalence Data

Seroprevalence survey is the most practical method for accurately estimating infection attack rate (IAR) in an epidemic such as influenza. These studies typically entail selecting an arbitrary titer threshold for seropositivity (e.g. microneutralization [MN] 1∶40) and assuming the probability of ser...
