The 1975 epidemic of acute conjunctivitis was caused by the return of S.E.C. 1970 virus (CA24). The clinical manifestations of cases seen in the recent epidemic were similar to those seen during the 1970 epidemic caused by S.E.C. 1970 virus (CA24) and the 1971 epidemic caused by S.E.C. 1971 virus (entero-virus type 70). In our opinion, both the S.E.C. 1970 VIRUS (CA24) and S.E.C. 1971 virus (enterovirus type 70) are equally important causes of epidemics of acute conjunctivitis more commonly known as the "Acute Haemorrhagic Conjunctivitis". Although these two enteroviruses affect mainly the eye, apart from conjunctival secretions, they could be transmitted in respiratory droplets and faeces. The authors would prefer to retain the term "Picornavirus Epidemic Conjunctivitis" to denote infection by S.E.C. 1970 virus (CA24) and S.E.C. 1971 virus (enterovirus type 70).
1975年的急性结膜炎疫情是由1970年肠道病毒（CA24）卷土重来引起的。近期疫情中所见到的病例临床表现与1970年由1970年肠道病毒（CA24）引起的疫情以及1971年由1971年肠道病毒（肠道病毒70型）引起的疫情中所见到的临床表现相似。我们认为，1970年肠道病毒（CA24）和1971年肠道病毒（肠道病毒70型）都是更为常见的被称为“急性出血性结膜炎”的急性结膜炎疫情的同等重要病因。尽管这两种肠道病毒主要影响眼睛，但除结膜分泌物外，它们还可通过呼吸道飞沫和粪便传播。作者们更倾向于保留“微小核糖核酸病毒流行性结膜炎”这一术语来表示由1970年肠道病毒（CA24）和1971年肠道病毒（肠道病毒70型）引起的感染。
