Coronavirus
• Coronavirus is a kind of common virus that causes an infection in your nose, sinuses, or upper throat.
Coronavirus NL63
• Respiratory tract infection is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, especially among young children.
• Human coronaviruses have only recently been shown to cause both lower and upper respiratory tract infections.
Coronaviruses
• Human coronaviruses OC43 and 229E have been recognized as causes of the common cold for many years and cause frequent reinfections throughout life.
Respiratory Syncytial Virus
• Respiratory syncytial virus is a common respiratory virus that usually causes mild, cold-like symptoms.
• RSV is the most common cause of bronchiolitis (inflammation of the small airway in the lung) and pneumonia (infection of the lungs) in children younger than 1 year of age in the United States. It is also a significant cause of respiratory illness in older adults.
Bocavirus
