Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) - Opportunity Analysis and Forecasts

Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is an enveloped, single-stranded, negative-sense ribonucleic acid (RNA) pneumovirus belonging to the family of Paramyxoviridae. The virus was discovered in 1956, first as an isolate from a laboratory chimpanzee displaying symptoms of the common cold, and later from infants suffering from respiratory disease. RSV can cause upper respiratory tract infections (the common cold) and is the most important cause of lower respiratory tract infections, such as bronchiolitis and pneumonia, in infants. RSV is also an important cause of hospitalizations and deaths in elderly adults.
