Abstract

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the single most important cause of serious lower respiratory tract disease in infants and young children worldwide. In temperate climates, infections primarily occur during yearly outbreaks that usually peak during the winter months. RSV activity in the United States is monitored by the National Respiratory and Enteric Virus Surveillance System (NREVSS), a voluntary, laboratory-based system. This report summarizes trends for RSV reported to NREVSS from July 1997 to June 1998 and presents preliminary surveillance data from July 1 to November 18, 1998.

摘要

呼吸道合胞病毒（RSV）是全球婴幼儿严重下呼吸道疾病的单一最重要病因。在温带气候地区，感染主要发生在每年的疫情暴发期间，通常在冬季达到高峰。美国通过国家呼吸道和肠道病毒监测系统（NREVSS）对呼吸道合胞病毒的活动进行监测，该系统是一个基于实验室的自愿性系统。本报告总结了1997年7月至1998年6月向NREVSS报告的呼吸道合胞病毒趋势，并呈现了1998年7月1日至11月18日的初步监测数据。
