Abstract
Human adenovirus 7d, a genomic variant with no reported circulation in the United States, was isolated from 2 adults with severe respiratory infections in Illinois. Molecular typing identified a close relationship with strains of the same genome type isolated from cases of respiratory disease in several provinces of China since 2009.
Keywords:
Illinois; United States; adenovirus; adenovirus 7d; family; respiratory infections; viruses.
