Fall tends to be cold and flu season in the U.S. It’s also when RSV typically begins to circulate.
“RSV is an acronym, for the respiratory syncytial virus,” says Robert M. Jacobson, M.D., a Mayo Clinic pediatrician. “It’s a nearly ubiquitous virus in that it comes around every winter. It infects almost everybody by the time they’re 2 years of age and it turns out we don’t get natural immunity from it.”
