Antiviral resistance in influenza viruses-implications for management and pandemic response
Article Abstract:
Studies of community isolates generally revealed low levels of primary resistance, when the incidence increased dramatically in China, possibly due to increased use of over-the-counter amantadine after emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome. However it is essential to enhance systematic monitoring for the emergence of resistant viruses, rapidly incorporate data on resistance into treatment strategies, and proceed with development of alternative agents.
