RSV accounts for approximately 20,000 hospitalisations in children under one year and is responsible for 20 to 30 infant deaths in the UK each year. Here is everything you need to know about the illness and the new vaccine rollout to help prevent it....
"The jab" might soon be replaced with something like "the huff" as slang for a COVID-19 vaccine dose.

Bancel said full results will be published at an upcoming infectious disease medical conference but did not specify which one. This is not the first time researchers have attempted to develop an RSV vaccine. In the late 1960s, a vaccine was produced in which the virus was inactivated with ...
We found that RSV A2-line19F infectivity was more thermostable over time than A2 at both temperatures (Fig. 2a,b), a phenotype that was mediated in part by the residues K357 and Y371 (Fig. 2c). We then introduced K357 and Y371 into the F of a genetically divergent vaccine strain ...
LJUBLJANA, SLOVENIA -- Passive protection of infants from severe respiratory syncytial virus lower respiratory tract infection during the first 6 months of life has convincingly been achieved through maternal immunization using a novel nanoparticle vaccine in the landmark PREPARE trial. MATERNAL RSV VACCI...
Consequently, the main functions of IFITMs are currently considered to suppress virus entry and reduce the infectivity of nascent viruses [6]. So far, the antiviral activities of IFITMs have been validated in the infections of numerous viruses, such as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) [21], ...
Arexvyis an adjuvanted RSV vaccine that is supplied in two vials that must be reconstituted before administration. One vial contains lyophilized recombinant respiratory syncytial virus glycoprotein F stabilized in pre-fusion conformation (rsv vaccine pref3, recombinant systemic) as the antigen component,...
The RSV vaccineis recommended for all those age 75 and older, as well as those ages 60 to 74 who are at increased risk of developing severe symptoms. Unlike the COVID and flu vaccines, the RSV vaccine isn’t annually administered, so those who got one last year don’t...
