Sumario:WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ON THIS TOPIC? Human adenovirus (HAdV) was frequently associated with acute respiratory disease (ARD) outbreaks in military camps. WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT? HAdV-B7, HAdV-B14, and HAdV-B55 were determined to be responsible for 3, 2, and 4 ARD outbreaks in military camps, China, respectively, with a total attack rate of 28.0% during 2011 to 2014. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE? The findings suggest that vaccine development and administration in military camps must be prioritized. Quarantining among new recruits before entering into the military and the identification of the major responsible genotypes at the current stage is warranted.
