Resumen

In a household cohort enrolled during the COVID-19 pandemic in Lima, Peru, detections of human rhinovirus, endemic coronaviruses, and parainfluenza viruses were significantly lower compared to these viral detections in a similar household cohort followed during the same seven epidemiological weeks in a period immediately preceding the COVID-19 pandemic.
