Serum antibodies were IgG and nasal wash antibodies were IgA binding to UV light and psoralen‐inactivated tissue culture‐adapted HCoV‐OC43 (ATCC#VR‐1558) measured by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay.
Severity of influenza‐like symptoms and signs score.
VAS is visual analogue scale score.
COPD is chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
