Household Influenza Vaccine Evaluation (HIVE) Study

The HIVE cohort is a longitudinal cohort of approximately 300 households with children in southeastern Michigan with year-round active surveillance of respiratory infections of any severity. This CDC- and NIH-funded cohort, running since 2010, collects nasal and blood specimens to evaluate the incidence of respiratory viruses including influenza, RSV and SARS-CoV-2, determine the effectiveness of vaccines against these viruses and study transmission within the household setting, especially among people with mild illnesses that may not seek medical care. For more information about enrollment in the HIVE, visit our study participant website.
