Human Metapneumovirus in Severe Respiratory Syncytial Virus Bronchiolitis [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2003 Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to detect segments of the M (matrix), N (nucleoprotein), and F (fusion) genes of human metapneumovirus in bronchoalveolar fluid from 30 infants with severe respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis.

A Retrospective Study Investigating Risks of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome and Mortality Following Human Metapneumovirus Infection in Hospitalized Adults [PDF]
Korean Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2017 Background Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a relatively recently identified respiratory virus that induces respiratory symptoms similar to those of respiratory syncytial virus infection in children. The characteristics of hMPV-infected adults are unclear

Outbreak of Human Metapneumovirus Infection in Zoo, Slovenia
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020 We report a case of human metapneumovirus infection that spread from humans to chimpanzees and back to humans. Bronchopneumonia developed in 4 of 6 members of a chimpanzee family, and 2 subsequently died.
