Impact of HMPV on the Human Body

open access: yesInternational Journal of Current Science Research and Review
This study is conducted to identify the grievousness that can be caused by the Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV). The major purpose of conducting this study is to spread awareness about the virus. The means and mode of spreading and how it can be prevented from spreading. HMPV is highly contagious, and it is not easy to differentiate it from the common cold.
