To evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the epidemiology of respiratory viral infections, we examined the prevalence of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and human metapneumovirus (hMPV) infections for pediatric patients admitted to our hospital before and after the COVID-19 pandemic from January 2015 to June 2023. During the COVID-19 pandemic, no outbreaks of RSV infections were seen in 2020, and no outbreaks of hMPV infections were seen in 2020 and 2021. Before the pandemic, the two epidemics did not overlap, but after the pandemic, the two epidemics almost overlapped for the second year in a row. The average age of patients with both RSV and hMPV infection after the pandemic was significantly older than before the pandemic by approximately one year.
为评估新冠疫情对呼吸道病毒感染流行病学的影响，我们调查了2015年1月至2023年6月期间新冠疫情前后我院收治的儿科患者中呼吸道合胞病毒（RSV）和人偏肺病毒（hMPV）感染的流行情况。在新冠疫情期间，2020年未出现RSV感染暴发，2020年和2021年未出现hMPV感染暴发。疫情之前，这两种流行病不重叠，但疫情之后，这两种流行病连续第二年几乎重叠。疫情后同时感染RSV和hMPV的患者平均年龄比疫情前显著大了约一岁。
