AU - Barr, Ian AU - Guan, Yi AU - Hakawi, Ahmad T1 - Molecular Epidemiology of Influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 Virus among Humans and Swine, Sri Lanka T2 - Emerging Infectious Disease journal PY - 2014 VL - 20 IS - 12 SP - 2080 SN - 1080-6059 AB - After multiple discrete introductions of influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus into Sri Lanka, the virus was transmitted among humans, then swine. The spread of virus between geographically distant swine farms is consistent with virus dispersal associated with a vehicle used for swine transportation, although this remains unproven.
