摘要
After the initial atypical presentation of a patient with avian influenza ( H5N1) infection, paired acute-phase and convalescent-phase serum samples obtained from 25 health care workers ( HCWs) who were exposed to the patient were compared with paired serum samples obtained from 24 HCWs who worked at different units in the same hospital and were not exposed to the patient. There was no serologic evidence of anti-H5 antibody reactivity or subclinical infection in either of the groups.
