for a total of 481 studies. We estimated that globally in 2019, there were 33·0 million RSV-associated acute lower respiratory infection episodes (uncertainty range [UR] 25·4–44·6 million), 3·6 million RSV-assoc...

In the oldest patient group to have patients with RSV infections, the average age was 75.1 years, significantly older than the 70.8 years seen among patients with COVID-19 at hospitalization. Coughing was the most prevalent symptom among patients with RSV, but it was the last prevalent in pati...

The elderly represent a crucial patient population at risk for severe complications from RSV infection and specifically the 80+ age bracket and/or the frail are at the greatest risk. Immune responses in these individuals are often referred to as immunosenescent in that the overall responses to imm...
Immunity against infection is waning rapidly for RSV; based on prior modeling work, estimates of duration of immunity against infection range between 200-365 days. However, immunity against severe disease can be more long-lasting and generally increases with age and number of prior infections (eg ...
Hospital admission with RSV occurred in 88 infants (3.1%; 88/2811). No deaths were attributable to RSV. The mean (SD, range) chronologic age on December 1 for RSV-H infants was 31 weeks (16.1; 0–52). Table 1 describes the study cohort and missing values. Risk Factors Nine risk ...
Their mean age was 9.4卤5.3 months (X卤SD; range: 2-24). The age distribution was 2-6 months in 26.3% patients, 7-12 months in 52.6% patients, and 13-24 months in 21.1% patients. RSV antigen in NS was positive in 36 (47.3%) patients, 4 of whom (5.2%) had anti-RSV-IgM in...
There are now 2 vaccines approved to prevent RSV-associated LRTI in adults 60 years of age and older. Studies of both the adjuvanted RSV vaccine and the RSVpreF vaccine yielded positive phase 3 efficacy and safety results. However, it is important to monitor the incidence of GBS as the vacc...
