Abstract:
In 2004, 185 specimens of patients with acute respiratory illnesses that were tested negative to influenza viruses were isolated to determine enteroviruses. The results showed that 10.8% were positive with enteroviruses. These isolated enteroviruses consist of 13 Coxsackievirus B, 1 Echovirus, 1 Poliosabin type 1, and 5 untyped Enteroviruses. The result also showed that 8.1% of isolated viruses were Adenoviruses
