Abstract

SummaryDuring an epidemic in Stockholm in the autumn of 1959 adenovirus type 7 was isolated from 99 hospitalized children. There was serological evidence of acute gdenovirus infection in 75 cases. The virus strains could not be referred to types 7 or 7A according to the scheme of Rowe et al., since no definite differences between the prototypes for these strains could be demonstrated by cross‐neutralization tests. In addition to the symptoms of acute respiratory illness observed previously in such infections, many of the patients exhibited symptoms of gastroenteritis, for which no other cause could be established.
