Pneumoviridae (from Greek pneumo- 'lung' + -viridae 'virus', from Latin, 'poison, slimy liquid')[2][3] is a family of negative-strand RNA viruses in the order Mononegavirales.[1][4] Humans, cattle, and rodents serve as natural hosts.[5] Respiratory tract infections are associated with member viruses such as human respiratory syncytial virus. There are five species in the family which are divided between the genera Metapneumovirus and Orthopneumovirus. The family used to be considered as a sub-family of Paramyxoviridae, but has been reclassified as of 2016.[1]
