Question 1 of 4

1. Question

Which statement about baloxavir marboxil is CORRECT?

The oral suspension of baloxavir had a longer time to reduction of viral shedding when compared to oseltamivir in children

People exposed to influenza through a household contact treated with baloxavir were just as likely to develop influenza as those treated with placebo

In patients 12 years and older at high risk of influenza complications with influenza B infection, baloxavir was associated with a significantly shorter time to improvement of influenza symptoms (TTIIS) when compared to placebo and oseltamivir

Baloxavir-treated patients with infections caused by resistant I38X virus have TTIIS longer than that of placebo
