Figure 2.
Percentages of viral respiratory infections attributed to human coronaviruses and other common respiratory viruses during each influenza season (October–May) from 2005–2006 until 2016–2017, based on 84 957 episodes of respiratory illness. Influenza includes influenza A and influenza B viruses combined; and “other” includes human adenoviruses, human metapneumovirus, and parainfluenza viruses type 1–4. Note: Years of major pandemic influenza A H1N1 virus circulation (2009–2010 and 2010–2011) must be viewed with caution, owing to high levels of partial testing. Testing for CoV-HKU1was discontinued in 2012. Abbreviations: CoV, human coronaviruses (CoV-229E, CoV-OC43, CoV-NL63, and CoV-HKU1 combined); RSV, respiratory syncytial virus; RV, human rhinovirus.
