    Snippet: Respiratory viruses are implicated, either directly, or as synergistic pathogens or co-factors in bacterial superinfections, in up to two thirds of all cases of pneumonia (equating to 80 million cases in young children in 2010) [2, 8] . Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the most commonly identified virus in young children with ALRI, contributing to an estimated 33.8 million new cases globally in 2005 [9] . Also, at least 25 other viruses have .....
    Document: Respiratory viruses are implicated, either directly, or as synergistic pathogens or co-factors in bacterial superinfections, in up to two thirds of all cases of pneumonia (equating to 80 million cases in young children in 2010) [2, 8] . Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the most commonly identified virus in young children with ALRI, contributing to an estimated 33.8 million new cases globally in 2005 [9] . Also, at least 25 other viruses have been associated with ALRI in children, most notably -rhinovirus, influenza, human metapneumovirus (MPV) and parainfluenza viruses (PIV) [8] . However, their aetiological role in ALRI in young children remains uncertain and we are not aware of any systematic reviews currently published that investigate this.
