Replication Data for: Surveillance of endemic human coronaviruses (HCoV-NL63, OC43 and 229E) associated with pneumonia in Kilifi, Kenya

These data is part of the long-term continuous respiratory virus surveillance among pneumonia admissions to Kilifi County Hospital (KCH) study.It contains results of specimens collected between January 2007 and December 2019 which were were processed and screened for 3 HCoVs (OC43, NL63 and 229E) and at least 12 other respiratory viral pathogens using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Aside from that, it also contains the patients’ sociodemographic characteristics (sex and age) and presenting symptoms. The data is used to describe the long-term patterns of paediatric disease associated with three viruses, HCoV-NL63, OC43 and 229E, in coastal Kenya.

本数据集为基利菲县医院（Kilifi County Hospital, KCH）肺炎住院患者呼吸道病毒长期持续监测研究的组成部分。数据集涵盖2007年1月至2019年12月期间采集的样本检测结果，研究采用实时荧光定量聚合酶链反应（real-time polymerase chain reaction, RT-PCR）技术，对3种人类冠状病毒（Human Coronaviruses, HCoVs，包括OC43、NL63及229E）以及至少12种其他呼吸道病毒病原体进行了筛查与检测。此外，数据集还收录了患者的社会人口学特征（性别与年龄）以及就诊时的临床症状。本数据集用于描述肯尼亚沿海地区与HCoV-NL63、OC43及229E三种冠状病毒相关的儿科疾病长期流行模式。
