このコンテンツについて

RSV, or Respiratory Syncytial Virus, is a common respiratory virus spread through droplets from coughing and sneezing. While usually mild, it can be severe for children under two, premature infants, those with cardiopulmonary disease, adults 65+, and immunocompromised individuals. 25-40% of first-infected children show bronchiolitis or pneumonia, but only 2% need hospitalization. Symptoms, appearing 4-6 days post-infection, include runny nose, decreased appetite, sneezing, fever, and wheezing. Infants may show irritability, decreased activity, or breathing difficulties.

Due to racism-related stress, Black and African American women have a higher risk of premature births, increasing RSV risk for their babies. Awareness and prevention are crucial for the community.

Preventative measures include staying home when sick, avoiding close contact with ill individuals, frequent handwashing (20 seconds with soap and water), disinfecting high-touch surfaces, and considering masks in crowded indoor settings. Staying updated on flu and COVID vaccinations is also recommended. For child-care questions, contact a healthcare provider or urgent care.
