Over a 20-year period in a population of otherwise healthy children, respiratory viruses have been cultured from nasal wash specimens from each child with a clinically significant respiratory illness. Since efforts are underway to develop vaccines for prevention of illness due to parainfluenza virus (PIV) type 3, the epidemiologic characteristics of PIVs were reviewed, and the population size necessary to demonstrate vaccine efficacy was estimated. A population of 1429 children was followed through early childhood. PIVs were isolated from 286 samples, 17.4% of positive viral cultures. PIV-3 was the most common: 10% of the children had at least one symptomatic, culture-proven PIV-3 infection. PIV-3 was endemic during the study period, while the other two PIVs, PIV-1 and -2, caused biennial flu epidemics. Only four PIV-related hospitalizations were seen. The efficacy of a PIV-3 vaccine could be demonstrated in a trial of 600 carefully monitored children vaccinated by 3 months and followed to 15 months of age.
