To evaluate the circulation of the different HAdV types and the possible relationship between viral load, viral genetic characteristics, and the severity of infection, nasopharyngeal swabs were collected from otherwise healthy children consecutively attending the Emergency Room of the Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico, University of Milan, Italy, due to a respiratory tract infection. However, further studies are needed to identify the potential pathogenetic role of the different species and types of HAdV and the importance of viral load in the severity of infection. ./cache/cord-306278-c4q4la5c.txt ./txt/cord-306278-c4q4la5c.txt
