ABSTRACT
The article considers the problem of incidence of respiratory diseases in children, especially of preschool age, preconditioned by the state of Waldeyer’s tonsillar ring and the pharyngeal tonsil in particular. The article provides assessment of the effect of the previous infectious diseases on the state of the nasopharynx microbiome. The authors present their data on frequency of viruses extraction (by PRC method) in the material taken from the surface of pharyngeal tonsil in patients with the inflammatory changes of the tonsil and without it. The article presents numerical materials about the age- and season-specific features of the presence of respiratory viruses in the nasopharynx microbiome of children of various age groups.
