Abstract

On the Ecuadorian coast, respiratory viruses cause around 20,000 cases per year; although Rhinoviruses are the most prevalent, there are also notable incidences of other pathogens, such as SARS-CoV-2, Influenza A, Influenza B and Respiratory Syncytial Virus. Globally, these viruses are one of the main causes of respiratory system diseases; to protect public health and prevent negative impacts on the community, it is crucial to understand how these viruses are spread, as well as to establish preventive measures and their mode of transmission.
