Reovirus Type 2 was isolated from three patients aged 5, 9 and 10 years. The etiological role of Reovirus in one case was confirmed by demonstration of antibodies in convalescent serum and none in acute serum. Symptoms in this case were suggestive of infectious mononucleosis. In the second case, rhinitis and non-purulent otitis were preceded by two waves of fever, abdominal pain and emesis. Acute serum was not available but convalescent serum had a high titre to a Reovirus, thus supporting a Reovirus etiology. Symptoms in the third case were fever, intermittent headache, neck stiffness, abdominal cramps and weakness of a leg. Because of the unavailability of convalescent serum, evidence of a Reovirus etiology was incomplete. No attempt is made to associate Reovirus with a particular clinical picture. Rather, attention is simply drawn to the existence of Reovirus infections in Ontario.
2型呼肠孤病毒是从三名年龄分别为5岁、9岁和10岁的患者身上分离出来的。通过检测恢复期血清中的抗体而急性期血清中无抗体，证实了呼肠孤病毒在其中一例中的病因作用。该病例的症状提示为传染性单核细胞增多症。在第二例中，鼻炎和非化脓性中耳炎之前有两波发热、腹痛和呕吐。急性期血清未获得，但恢复期血清对呼肠孤病毒有高滴度，因此支持呼肠孤病毒病因。第三例的症状为发热、间歇性头痛、颈部僵硬、腹部绞痛和一条腿无力。由于未获得恢复期血清，呼肠孤病毒病因的证据不完整。未尝试将呼肠孤病毒与特定临床表现联系起来。相反，只是提请注意安大略省存在呼肠孤病毒感染。
