The agency added that nearly a third of children in the UK suffer from the virus it causes with pneumoniaAnd swelling of the bronchi and, as a result, 7.4% of the population suffers from it.
The situation does not arise Australia Much better, given that the country has also seen a sudden increase in infections with this virus, and so has the United States, reported a newspaper "Daily mail" British.
What is respiratory syncytial virus?
- A widespread virus that affects children a lot.
- Among its symptoms, high temperatures, cough and phlegm loss of appetite.
- Adenovirus or syncytial virus such as influenceIt can be of animal origin or mutated from one person to another and its symptoms are the same as those of the flu.
- 98% of people infected with the virus suffer from a runny nose.
- 1 percent of premature babies "Premature birth" They have risk factors, may develop pulmonary crises and require hospitalization.
- Most of the injuries affect two-year-olds Respiratory difficulties Or the occurrence of cyanosis in the skin should go to the hospital.
- It is preferable that children do not go to school if they are infected, because the virus is transmitted through breathing.
What do the studies say?
– I followed a study published in a journal "Hand" The medical conditions of 7 thousand wounded with covid-19 are being treated in hospitals, of which 583 have been infected with influenza, respiratory syncytial virus or Adenoviruses (They usually cause colds and sore throats).
– researchers found at the university "Edinburgh" Those with Covid and flu were more than twice as likely to die, although there was no significant increase in death rates when someone had MERS and RSV.
– However, scientists believe that the most likely effect of respiratory syncytial virus is that some people will get the three types of infection one after another, which will be debilitating and dangerous for certain age groups or those suffering from other diseases.
– Scientists stressed that it is difficult to predict the impact that respiratory syncytial virus may have, given that there have been very few cases of infection with it in the last two years, due to closures and procedures Contact reduction that accompanied the COVID-19 epidemic.
– Scientists have not underestimated the danger of respiratory syncytial virus, especially for children or the elderly with weakened immunity, because it can lead to bronchitis and bronchitis.
How can the virus be prevented?
- To reduce the risk of contracting any of the viruses in general, it is important to observe simple hygiene measures such as making sure you wash your hands with soap and water when touching potentially contaminated objects.
- Because virus particles can invade the body through the tear ducts and conjunctiva (the membranes that line the eyes), avoid rubbing your eyes, as your hands can transmit the virus. infection.
- Vaccinations are the first line of defense against Covid and the flu, and there are many Vaccines which are subject to testing
As for respiratory syncytial virus, it should soon be available on the market as a vaccine for a company "Pfizer".
