Viral infections constitute more than 60% of acute lower respiratory illnesses. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and parainfluenza viruses are the most frequent etiologic agents. After transmission by large droplet aerosol or direct contact, the viruses gain entry into host cells through specific viral surface proteins; subsequently, pathogenetic ...

Respiratory infections in the traveler
Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2000The growth of travel of recent years has been unprecedented and presents new challenges to health professionals worldwide. More travelers of diverse backgrounds are visiting exotic locales rarely encountered before. This poses new risks to health, in addition to potentially aiding the spread of emerging respiratory infections.

Abstract Clinging to outmoded World War II (when they first came into prominence) concepts of the respiratory mycoses is in this age of concern over air pollution and environment not only paradoxical, but dangerous. The respiratory mycoses are infrequently differentiated from man-to-man transmitted flu-like illnesses.
