People living in communal settings, such as in residence halls, are vulnerable to infectious outbreaks and once it occurs, it can be difficult to prevent its spread. An outbreak of pandemic influenza (H1N1 2009) virus was confirmed in September 2009 in an international residence hall of a university in Seoul, Republic of Korea. Herein, we report an outbreak of the pandemic influenza in a university residence hall that was successfully contained by applying the recommended infection control guidance: active surveillance system, isolation of the patients, contact precaution, and education.
