Fecal specimens collected from patients with acute gastroenteritis among the Northern Jordan population were screened for human coronaviruses-229E, human coronaviruses-NL63, human coronaviruses-HKU1, and human coronaviruses-OC43 by Reverse Transcriptase-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) and PCR. Out of the 401 analyzed specimens, 42(10.5%) specimens were found positive for at least one human coronavirus. Of the 42 specimens, 57.1% were positive for human coronaviruses-229E, 33.3% for human coronaviruses-NL63, and 9.5% for human coronaviruses-HKU1. The human coronaviruses-OC43 virus was not detected in the tested specimens. None of the fecal specimens collected from healthy individuals were found positive for human coronavirus strains. No significant association was found between human coronavirus infection and gender (P>0.05). Most infected cases were in the age group >60 years old (23.8%), followed by the age group 0-1year-old (19.0%). Most cases of human coronaviruses were detected in the winter season (42.9%) with a significant association recorded with human coronaviruses-NL63 (P = 0.006), and the lowest in the spring season (4.8%).The relationship between the human coronavirus-229E and fever (P = 0.04) and between human coronavirus-HKU1 and weakness (P = 0.04) were significant. No association (P> 0.05) between respiratory disease and positive human coronaviruses fecal specimens. The average symptom duration was 2-3 days. Among the viral-positive specimens, 38.1% were under antibiotic treatment. The provided data will help in patient care control of viral acute gastroenteritis.
