Reporting from halodoc.com, Adenovirus is a virus that usually infects children under five years old, although there is still a possibility of infecting all ages.
This virus attacks the respiratory system, causing infections such as colds and coughs, with symptoms similar to the common cold and flu.

The cause of Adenovirus infection is because the human immune system is weak, the higher the body’s immunity, the more difficult it is for this virus to infect.
Transmission of Adenovirus Infection
Close contact: such as shaking hands, kissing, hugging, and living in crowded places. Air: this virus can be transmitted through droplets from people who sneeze or cough. Surfaces: touching objects that have been handled by a person carrying the virus. Stool: such as when changing a baby’s diaper which contains this virus. Water without chlorine: as people who carry adenovirus swim in swimming pools without chlorine, the water can spread the virus.
