Mould was observed growing on a small number of nasal swabs at the time of their arrival at the Laboratory. In light of this observation, before extraction all swabs were inspected visually for mould and were assigned a semi-qualitative score according to a sliding scale (0 to 3), whereby 0 = no mould observed, 1 = low, 2 = medium, and 3 = high levels of visible mould present.

In comparison mould detection rates were 31.0 in spring (crude odds ratio (OR); 95 CI = 1.08; 0.87 ?1.34), 15.8 in autumn (0.47; 0.37 ?0.59) and 13.7 in winter (0.40; 0.29 ?0.53).

Of the 27 withdrawals, four had moved out of the study area, two others were later deemed ineligible, ten withdrew for personal reasons and eleven were ineligible because they could not fulfill sampling requirements.
