Some types are capable of establishing persistent asymptomatic infections in tonsils, adenoids, and intestines of infected hosts, and shedding can occur for months or years. Some adenoviruses (e.g., serotypes 1, 2, 5, and 6) have been shown to be endemic in parts of the world where they have been studied, and infection is usually acquired during childhood. Other types cause sporadic infection and occasional outbreaks; for example, epidemic keratoconjunctivitis is associated with adenovirus serotypes 8, 19, and 37. Epidemics of febrile disease with conjunctivitis are associated with waterborne transmission of some adenovirus types, often centering around inadequately chlorinated swimming pools and small lakes. ARD is most often associated with adenovirus types 4 and 7 in the United States. Enteric adenoviruses 40 and 41 cause gastroenteritis, usually in children. For some adenovirus serotypes, the clinical spectrum of disease associated with infection varies depending on the site of infection; for example, infection with adenovirus 7 acquired by inhalation is associated with severe lower respiratory tract disease, whereas oral transmission of the virus typically causes no or mild disease. Outbreaks of adenovirus-associated respiratory disease have been more common in the late winter, spring, and early summer; however, adenovirus infections can occur throughout the year.
Adenoviruksen muunnoksia on olemassa kymmeniä. Adeno aiheuttaa tulehduksia mm. hengitysteihin, suolistoon, keuhkoihin, sydämeen.
Korkea ja pitkä kuume täsmää, niskakipukin sopisi taudin oireisiin, sekä se että jos kalpro on ollut koholla, senkka on ollut koholla ja välillä taas normaali..puhumattakaan siitä että perheessä on ollut streptokokin aiheuttama angiina, jonka jälkitauteihin voi liittyä adenovirus.
Virukseen ei ole hoitoa, vain oireita voidaan hoitaa.
Perheessä on ollut siis alunperin vaikea ja sitkeä märkärupi, joka on saattanut olla myös streptokokki-peräinen. Vain kuukausia myöhemmin perheessä kiersi sitkeä angiina. Poika kantaa adenovirusta.
Näinköhän meillä olisi case closed?
