Viruses

Infrequently, viruses are identified as sources of community water borne outbreaks and in at least one case a small round structure virus (SRSV) was linked to hospital acquired infection. Viral outbreaks usually present as gastrointestinal ill nesses. Since physicians don’t routinely order viral cultures on patients with diarrhea, viral outbreaks may be missed. Other viral agents that have been linked to waterborne disease are Hepatitis A and Norwalk virus.
