Clinical Relevance of RSV and SARS-CoV-2 Coinfections in Infants and Young Children
PEDIATRIC INFECTIOUS DISEASE JOURNAL(2023)
Abstract
We analyzed the frequency, clinical impact and severity of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and SARS-CoV-2 coinfections in a single pediatric center between March 2020 and January 2023. Compared to single RSV infections, RSV/SARS-CoV-2 coinfections were uncommon (2.1%), occurred more frequently during circulation of omicron, and were associated with increased disease severity as defined by longer hospitalization and increased need for high-flow nasal cannula.
