Document: A further challenge to the diagnostics of viral illness is optimal sampling. Nasopharyngeal swabs, aspirates or washes are traditionally used in children but they are not well tolerated in older adults or older people. The best way and time to take samples for viral diagnostics are not known for the elderly. Although nasopharyngeal swab sampling is a sensitive and sufficient method for children [129, 130] , this simplest sampling method may be difficult to apply to adults [131] . To obtain a sufficient sample and viral load, optimal sampling probably requires both nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal sampling. Taking swab samples is probably the quickest way and causes the least discomfort while nasopharyngeal washing may collect more viruses [128, 131] .
