1956Enders et al. in Science CXXIV. 119/2 Agreement was reached on the term adenovirus group, which suggests a characteristic involvement of lymphadenoid tissue, as well as the tissue of the first reported isolation. 1957Times 22 Nov. 15/4 During recent years American workers have isolated an increasing number of viruses from the throats of individuals with what are generically known as upper respiratory infections—that is, infections of the nose, throat, pharynx, and larynx.
