- •
The prevalence of human bocavirus (HBoV) in stool is similar between patients with gastro-intestinal symptoms and healthy controls.
- •
Other viruses are concurrently present in 20–80% of HBoV positive patients.
- •
In immunocompetent patients HBoV in stool is likely to be an innocent bystander.
- •
Current evidence does not support screening for HBoV in stool as a routine procedure in clinical practice.
