Abstract

Five-year retrospective analysis of respiratory viruses in children less than 18 years old at Tripler Army Medical Center and outlying clinics in Oahu. Respiratory syncytial virus and influenza A showed pronounced seasonality with peaks from September to December and December to March, respectively. Results provide a better understanding of the timing of viral preventive strategies in Oahu.
