If respiratory illness with onset of symptoms in the previous 7 days was present at a clinic visit, subjects were first asked to blow their nose to remove mucus that might inhibit PCR, and paired swabs were obtained as follows: a deep nasal (mid-turbinate) sample was collected by research staff, by first measuring from the opening of one naris to the nasal bridge, and then inserting a standard flexible nasopharyngeal flocked nylon swab (Copan Diagnostics Inc, Murrieta, CA; catalog No. 503CS01) until mild resistance was encountered, approximately one-half to two-thirds the length of the nose.	./cache/cord-286443-t0asknzu.txt	./txt/cord-286443-t0asknzu.txt
