What is RSV?
Respiratory syncytial (sin-SISH-uhl) virus, or RSV, is a common respiratory virus that usually causes mild, cold-like symptoms. Most people recover in a week or two, but RSV can be serious, especially for infants and older adults. RSV is the most common cause of bronchiolitis (inflammation of the small airways in the lung) and pneumonia (infection of the lungs) in children younger than 1 year of age in the United States.
Alternative RSV test, QUIDEL® QuickVue® Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Test is available here.
More information about RSV is available at the CDC-Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
