*The drug susceptibility of MDCK-grown viruses was determined using a NA inhibition assay. Reference viruses are from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Neuraminidase Inhibitor Susceptibility Reference Virus Panel version 3.0 (Atlanta, GA, USA). IC50 fold increase was determined by comparing to wild-type reference virus IC50. According to the World Health Organization Antiviral Working Group criteria, an increase below 10-fold constitutes normal inhibition, an increase of 10–100-fold is considered as reduced inhibition and an increase >100-fold is classified as highly reduced inhibition. IC50, concentration of drug needed to inhibit NA by 50%; NA, neuraminidase.
