Table 2.

Number of subjects experiencing a seroconversion (≥ 4-fold rise in antibody titer) vs. nine common respiratory viruses during the entire study period; 191 subjects had serum samples available both at baseline and end-of-study and were thus included in the analysis. Totals are given both as proportion of subjects in each group experiencing seroconversion/cold season and, since individuals could seroconvert to > one virus, the rate of seroconversions/cold season by group is also shown.
