Here is a brief overview of what RSV is and who it affects most. I also explain some of the challenges associated with development of a vaccine for RSV.
An important reminder is that while RSV is most common in children, RSV can infect anyone as about 25% of adults will have an RSV infection during the year. Using testing methods such as an antigen test or PCR are the easiest ways to detect this virus.
