All specimens were negative for influenza viruses A and B; parainfluenza viruses 1, 2, and 3; adenovirus; and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) by direct or indirect fluorescence assays or virus isolation and for human metapneumovirus (HMPV) by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Although a causal relationship still needs to be demonstrated by including a control group of healthy persons, detection of HBoV in respiratory tract specimens from patients with undiagnosed ARI suggests that this virus may be associated with respiratory illness. Most (89%) hospitalizations were in persons <5 years of age, which suggests that HBoV may cause more severe respiratory illness in infants and children, similar to disease caused by RSV (4, 5) , HMPV (6,7), human coronavirus NL63 (8) (9) (10) (11) (12) (13) (14) , and human coronavirus 229E (15) . ./cache/cord-320286-9tumplp3.txt ./txt/cord-320286-9tumplp3.txt
