Indoor environmental condition to control influenza infection has been a matter of concern from a viewpoint of public health. Following Shaman et al.'s work, Harper's data concerning influenza virus survival rate was reanalyzed to find out relationship between humidity and virus survival rate which is presumably correlated with influenza transmission. It was found that the virus survival rates were highly correlated with absolute humidity even for very short and long elapsed time after released to atmospheric air. Influenza virus survival rate was well represented with a single decay curve by taking half-lifetime period as a representative time scale.
