Hematologic parameters—groups are defined as PCR‐positive nasal swab/respiratory disease clinical signs positive (PCR+/CS+), PCR‐negative nasal swab/respiratory disease clinical signs positive (PCR–/CS+), PCR‐positive nasal swab/respiratory disease clinical signs negative (PCR+/CS–), and PCR‐negative nasal swab/respiratory disease clinical signs negative (PCR–/CS–)
