Replication Data for: Rhinovirus transmission dynamics across different social structures

This is a replication dataset for the publication titled: "Rhinovirus transmission dynamics across different social structures ."

This dataset aims to compare rhinovirus dynamics from five previous studies conducted in Kenya in four different social structures. The studies are (i) intensive household surveillance in coastal Kenya (Dec 2009 - May 2010), (ii) surveillance of respiratory viruses within a public primary school (May 2017 – April 2018), (iii) outpatient surveillance of acute respiratory illness within the Kilifi Health and Demographic Surveillance System (KHDSS) (Dec 2015 - Nov 2016), and (iv) countrywide surveillance of severe acute respiratory syndrome illness (SARI) among inpatients and influenza-like illness (ILI) among outpatients via sentinel hospital reporting (Jan 2014 - Dec 2014). (v) We used contemporaneous data from long-term surveillance of severe pneumonia among pediatric inpatients at the Kilifi County Hospital (KCH) for comparison with the households, school, and KHDSS studies datasets. The primary dataset contains VP4/2 sequence data, alongside necessary metadata (e.g. date of sampling, site where collection, respective study). Secondary datasets generated from the primary data are also included (described in section 4 - Contents).
