Abstract
RHINOVIRUSES have been associated with 10 to 30 per cent of acute upper respiratory illnesses in several groups of adults.1 2 3 4 5 6 In March, 1963, a study was undertaken to define the etiology and epidemiology of acute respiratory disease in a population of working adults, and the role of a number of viruses was studied initially. Coincident with the beginning of the investigation, improvements in technology occurred that facilitated the isolation of rhinoviruses and shifted emphasis to these agents. During the first three years of the study, the period considered in this report, approximately a quarter of the acute respiratory illnesses were . . .This publication has 23 references indexed in Scilit:
