Category:Respiratory Viral Infections

In general

• Some viruses are thought to induce modifications of the pulmonary defences by:
  • Damaging the upper respiratory tract, thereby facilitating bacterial attachment and colonisation, with reduced mucociliary clearance
  • Decreasing surfactant levels by destroying Type 2 pneumonocytes
  • Impairing the phagocytic ability of alveolar macrophages
