Clinical impact of human metapneumovirus infections before and during the COVID-19 pandemic
Background The first outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) occurred in March 2020 in Europe, which is normally the peak incidence period of human metapneumovirus (HMPV) infections, implying cocirculation and potentially causing competition ...

Human Metapneumovirus RNA in Encephalitis Patient
We describe a fatal case of encephalitis that might be correlated with primary human metapneumovirus (HMPV) encephalitis. Postmortem HMPV RNA was detected in brain and lung tissue samples from the patient.

Probenecid Inhibits Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV) Replication In Vitro and in BALB/c Mice
Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is an important cause of acute respiratory tract infection and causes significant morbidity and mortality. There is no specific antiviral drug to treat HMPV or vaccine to prevent HMPV.
