Metapneumovirus increasingly linked to common colds
Chicago reports on a virus discovered in 2001 that now appears to cause about 12 percent of severe lower respiratory illnesses in children and 15 percent of common colds, with repeat infections common but usually milder. It ranks as a leading cause of respiratory infections after RSV, affecting infants most and the elderly with medical conditions at higher risk. Researchers say the virus is omnipresent and widespread, though not often serious, and was hard to study because it grows poorly in cell cultures.
