Abstract: |
Acute respiratory tract infections (ARTIs) are associated with significant morbidity and mortality worldwide, especially in developing countries. Children under the age of 5 years old are mostly affected. Both viral and bacterial causes are implicated, but viral etiologies are more difficult to diagnose. Viral infections can occur either single or mixed, but the significance and association of polyviral agents with the severity of cases are poorly understood. More studies are critical for understanding this role, improving diagnosis and treatment |
