  • Title: Viral agents of acute respiratory infections in young children in Kuala Lumpur.
    Author: Ong SB, Lam KL, Lam SK.
    Journal: Bull World Health Organ; 1982; 60(1):137-40. PubMed ID: 6282479.
    Abstract:
    The results of this study indicate that the important viral agents associated with lower respiratory tract infections in young children are respiratory syncytial virus, rhinovirus, and parainfluenza virus, particularly in those under 2 years of age. This is in close agreement with studies done in temperate climates. Influenza A virus is seasonal and plays an important role in upper respiratory tract infections in older children.
