Tracking respiratory viruses in your community and home
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tracks how respiratory viruses spread in the community and within households. It involves testing and collecting samples from people who are sick or healthy, to help better understand and prevent outbreaks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must live in the study's service area (where they can pick up samples).
- You plan to stay in that area for the next 2 years.
- You are not living in a group setting like a nursing home or dormitory with shared bathrooms.
- You have not been in another respiratory virus clinical trial in the past 3 months.
- If you or someone in your home has a respiratory virus, you may also need to have a not-yet-sick household member.

This study evaluates a home test kit that detects respiratory infections like the flu, RSV, and COVID-19 from a simple nose swab. It helps see if the test works well when used outside a clinic.
This study collects samples from people who have or might have a cold/respiratory virus, then stores them for future research. It may help researchers better understand respiratory germs and develop better treatments.
This study tracks viruses that cause sudden colds and flu-like illnesses during winter months in France. Researchers collect information from patients seen by participating doctors to better understand which respiratory viruses are circulating and help prepare for future outbreaks.
This study looks at how your immune system responds to COVID-19 or the flu. It may help researchers understand these infections better, whether you are currently sick or healthy.
This study collects sent-in samples to better understand how your immune system responds during a COVID-19–like illness and after you recover. It may help researchers learn why some people get sick and others stay uninfected, and how immune protection works over time.
This study is testing different treatments for people with respiratory infections like the flu who are not in the hospital. You may be able to join if you have a positive test, have symptoms like cough or fever, and start within a few days of feeling sick.
