Genetic and Clinical-epidemiologic Profile of hRSV in Pediatric Patients in Southern Brazil: A Four-year Hospital Surveillance Study
Both hRSV subtypes showed similar severity and were not linked to comorbidities. Severe cases were more common in young patients and those infected with GB5.0.2 and GB5.0.4a genotypes. Understanding hRSV's molecular evolution is crucial for tracking new variants and assessing their impact on the effectiveness of emerging vaccines and monoclonal antibodies.
