Better therapies and prevention strategies are needed to decrease the burden of acute RSV disease in all age populations worldwide. Furthermore, we can hypothesize that those improved measures also would likely have an effect on the chronic consequences of RSV infection in children and will reduce the incidence of recurrent wheezing and persistent pulmonary function abnormalities caused by RSV LRIs.
需要更好的治疗方法和预防策略来减轻全球所有年龄段人群中急性呼吸道合胞病毒(RSV)疾病的负担。此外,我们可以推测,这些改进措施可能也会对儿童RSV感染的慢性后果产生影响,并将降低由RSV下呼吸道感染(LRI)引起的反复喘息和持续性肺功能异常的发生率。
