PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Change from baseline at Day 4

Population: All randomised subjects for whom data was collected at both baseline and Day 4. Oseltamivir group: baseline data available for 58 of 59 randomised subjects and Day 4 data for 53 subjects (53 subjects analysed). Standard of Care Alone group: baseline data available for 61 of 63 subjects and Day 4 data for 55 subjects (55 subjects analysed).

Attention assessed using simple reaction time measured in milliseconds. Simple reaction time calculated as the mean of the following 2 sub-tests: * Reaction Time Subtest * Cued Reaction Time Subtest The lower the value, the better the attention.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: Change from baseline at Day 4

Population: All randomised subjects with data collected at both Baseline and Day 4. Baseline data was available for all randomized subjects in both groups; Day 4 data was available for 54 of 59 randomized subjects in the Oseltamivir Group (54 analysed) and for 58 of 63 randomized subjects in the Standard of Care Alone Group (58 analysed).

Mood was assessed using the Bond-Lader 10 cm (100 mm) visual analogue scales for mood (16 scales in total); factored for alertness (mean of 9 scales), calmness (mean of 2 scales) and contentment (mean of 5 scales). The range in score for each scale and for each factor (alertness, calmness and contentment) was 0 - 100 mm. Each scale was anchored such that the lower the value, the better the mood.
