Abstract
Early public health involvement can lead to rapid termination of outbreaks of respiratory virus infections in residential homes. Although the use of oseltamivir is expensive, the data suggest that it does have some benefits as prophylaxis in this setting. Trials are needed to determine the most clinically and cost-effective interventions to control outbreaks in residential homes and avoid hospital admissions.
