Household Influenza Vaccine Evaluation (HIVE) Study: COVID-19 Response
The HIVE cohort is a longitudinal cohort of over 300 households with children in southeastern Michigan with year-round active surveillance of respiratory infections of any severity. This CDC- and NIH-funded cohort, running since 2010, will be testing study specimens to evaluate the incidence of COVID-19 and transmission within the household setting, especially among people with mild illnesses that may not seek medical care. This team will be performing research using only RT-PCR and serology testing for influenza, COVID-19, and other respiratory viruses.
