WHO SHOULD BE TESTED FOR COVID-19, FLU, and RSV?
Even though many people have been vaccinated from COVID-19 and the flu, it’s clear, due to uncertainty surrounding vaccine immunity, that testing will play a critical role in ensuring safety across many aspects of life. That is why we recommend testing for students, employees, event goers, and those in community settings such as assisted living facilities. These are situations when potentially at-risk people come together and viruses can be transmitted.
For RSV, there is currently no vaccine, so testing is the best way to determine exposure and development of a treatment plan.
WHAT IS RSV?
RSV, or Respiratory Syncytial Virus, is a common winter virus that usually causes mild, cold-like symptoms that typically appear in stages, not all at once. Symptoms can include runny nose, loss of appetite, coughing, sneezing and wheezing. Some people with RSV may have a fever, but not everyone. RSV can be very serious for infants, older adults, or anyone with respiratory issues.
RSV is the most common cause of bronchiolitis (inflammation of the small airways in the lung) and pneumonia (infection of the lungs) in children younger than 1 year of age in the United States.
