Abstract

Historically, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection trends have been predictable. The COVID-19 pandemic and associated precautions impacted RSV disease patterns. RSV infection trends during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic may have predicted the 2022 surge in pediatric RSV infections. A continued emphasis on increased viral testing will allow for early recognition and preparation for future public health crises.
