The most common pathogens were RSV A\/B in 2019 and 2023, RSV A\/B in 2020, PIV3 in 2021, RSVA\/B in 2022, and Rhinovirus in 2024. RSV A\/B was the most frequently detected virus in both girls and boys. HMPV A\/B was significantly more common in males (p&amp;lt;0.05). Viral pathogens were detected in 73.60% of individuals aged \u22641 year, with RSV A\/B being the most frequently identified. ARIs peaked during the winter months and were lowest in the summer. ARIs reached their highest level in December and dropped significantly in August. RSV A\/B predominated in December, January, February, and March; Rhinovirus in April, May, and June; Adenovirus in July, August, September, and October; and Bocavirus in November.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Monitoring the annual and seasonal distribution of respiratory viruses is critical for predicting and identifying epidemics and pandemics.
