  1. Adjusted influenza A virus (IAV) positive proportions and prevalence ratios obtained from a generalized mixed regression model to evaluate the associations between farm activities and IAV detection in farmworkers’ hands and coveralls. Influenza A virus rRT-PCR detection was used as a dependent variable with sample type, activity performed, and farm identification as predictor variables
