Risk group are newly organized military units, where outbreaks of infectious diseases occur, in particular acute respiratory ones, that caused the outbreaks of community-acquired pneumonia. Despite the fact that considerable progress was achieved in the diagnosis and treatment of community-acquired pneumonia and prevention of its complications, on the one hand, there was a significant evolution in the views on the understanding of the pathogenesis of infectious process, on the other — the indices of morbidity and mortality remain its growth dynamics around the world.

Of these, in 44 (88 %) patients we have detected a viral agent: adenovirus — in 34 patients, rhinovirus — in 14, influenza A — in 3, parainfluenza — in 1, coronavirus 229E — in 1, coronavirus OC43 — in 1 patient ; viral agent has not been detected in 6 patients.
