Viral loads of throat swab specimens collected from persons with avian influenza A(H7N9) and seasonal A(H3N2) and A(H1N1)pdm09 virus infection. Statistical analyses were performed by using a 1-way analysis of variance for the 3 groups and an unpaired t-test for comparison between the 2 seasonal influenza virus groups. Horizontal lines indicate medians and 95% CIs (above and below means).
