Abstract
A survey of mild respiratory disease in a primary school was undertaken over a 2-year period to determine which of the newer respiratory viruses were responsible for these illnesses.The over-all isolation rate was low but a wide variety of viral agents was isolated.None of these caused epidemics but it is suggested they may be the cause of a low but constant absentee-rate throughout the year.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
