The chest X-ray of a 15-month-old child with severe combined immunodeficiency and respiratory distress syndrome due to coronavirus HKU1 infection. However, it is worth noting that coronavirus respiratory infections have not been described in children with genetically determined immunodeficiencies thus far and this is the first report of a documented HCoV-HKU1-related pneumonia with the RDS in a child with SCID. The identification of HCoV-HKU1 provides a novel insight into the epidemiology and clinical implications of coronavirus infections in severely immunocompromised children and indicates for consideration of this pathogen-related etiology of respiratory infection in SCID. ./cache/cord-273620-gn8g6suq.txt ./txt/cord-273620-gn8g6suq.txt
