This study investigates the relationship of viruses to febrile illness in children. Subjects are normal children 2-36 months of age with fever along with normal children of the same age without fever, plus immunocompromised children with fever along with immunocompromised children without fever. Specimens obtained include blood, nasopharyngeal secretions, and feces. Specimens are analyzed using a panel of virus-specific PCR assays and also by high throughput sequencing using 454 and Illumina platforms
