Other viruses, including coronavirus, astrovirus and calicivirus have been reported in some illnesses and outbreaks. In most cases, they have been identified by electron microscopy from cases of illness, and it is not yet clear if any or all of them are truly etiologically associated with disease since the necessary investigations have yet to be performed. However, association with disease has been convincingly demonstrated with the astroviruses and caliciviruses. Appendix
