This potential for vast genetic variability within influenza viruses and their highly error-prone RNA dependent RNA polymerase does raise concerns regarding the possible emergence of treatment resistant strains and generates further questions regarding their viral fitness and transmissibility as well as which strategies to employ in rapidly identifying and effectively treating these resistance variants. Neuraminidase inhibitor susceptibility testing should be considered particularly in young children and immunocompromised patients being treated with a neuraminidase inhibitor for influenza (especially H1N1 pdm09), who are not responding to treatment and/or have persistently high viral loads (low cycle threshold values using RT-PCR) and/or exposed to a suspected or confirmed resistant case. ./cache/cord-010959-sigw7yxk.txt ./txt/cord-010959-sigw7yxk.txt
