In 2009, pandemic H1N1 influenza virus 2009 H1N1 emerged worldwide, causing morbidity and mortality that disproportionately affected young adults. Upper respiratory infection URI, largely due to adenovirus, is an endemic cause of morbidity in military training. Whether clinical presentations differ or excess morbidity results from coinfection is unclear.
