Snippet: Pneumonia is the second leading cause of death among children under the age of 5, resulting in more childhood deaths than diarrhea and malaria combined, with more than 95% of those cases occurring in low-and middle-income countries [4, 5] . A 2015 meta-analysis of the global burden of childhood pneumonia found the greatest proportion (39%) of severe pneumonia cases occurred in Southeast Asia [6] .

Document: Pneumonia is the second leading cause of death among children under the age of 5, resulting in more childhood deaths than diarrhea and malaria combined, with more than 95% of those cases occurring in low-and middle-income countries [4, 5] . A 2015 meta-analysis of the global burden of childhood pneumonia found the greatest proportion (39%) of severe pneumonia cases occurred in Southeast Asia [6] . However, because Streptoccocus pneumoniae is the most common cause of vaccine-preventable severe pneumonia, much of the literature has focused on bacterial causes of pneumonia or antibiotic resistance, whereas fewer studies have prospectively investigated the viral etiology of pneumonia in Southeast Asia [7] [8] [9] . One study of respiratory samples collected from children living in Kuala Lumpur under 5 years of age between 1982 and 2008 found that 26.4% of the samples were positive by immunofluorescence assays and viral cultures for viral pathogens, with a prevalence of 18.6% for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), 3.5% for parainfluenza viruses (PIVs), 2.9% for influenza viruses, and 1.37% for adenovirus [10] .
