A number of adenovirus serotypes have been associated with both sporadic cases and outbreaks of conjunctivitis and pharyngoconjunctival fever but only adenovirus type 8 and adenovirus type 19 have been responsible for wide-spread epidemic kerato-conjunctivitis. In Melbourne, Australia, in the past eight years these two serotypes have been prevalent, resulting in an outbreak of adenovirus type 8 kerato-conjunctivitis in 1976-7 followed by adenovirus type 19 kerato-conjunctivitis in 1978-9. During these two periods of peak incidence, 53 cases of adenovirus type 8 and 43 cases of adenovirus type 19 kerato-conjunctivitis were confirmed by isolation.
多种腺病毒血清型与散发性病例以及结膜炎和咽结膜热的暴发有关,但只有8型腺病毒和19型腺病毒导致了广泛流行的流行性角结膜炎。在澳大利亚墨尔本,过去八年来这两种血清型一直很普遍,导致1976 - 1977年暴发了8型腺病毒角结膜炎,随后在1978 - 1979年暴发了19型腺病毒角结膜炎。在这两个发病率高峰期,通过分离确诊了53例8型腺病毒和43例19型腺病毒角结膜炎病例。
