5/ Takeaway: Enhanced surveillance and detailed clinical data are essential to understand and combat the effects of RSV reinfections in children. These data are critical to guide the implementation of new preventive immunizations🛡️🔬 #PublicHealth #MedicalResearch
3/ Data alert: The study identified 466 children with hospital-attended RSV reinfections in Western Australia over 10 years. Median interval between RSV detections was 460 days, with a reinfection rate of 95 per 100,000 children 📊👧 #ClinicalResearch #RSVawareness
2/ Key finding: Hospital-attended RSV reinfections are uncommon but when they occur, requires significant medical care. Those first infected before 6 months old are at the highest risk. 🏥👶 #ChildHealth #RespiratorySyncytialVirus
1/ mdpi.com/2598502 Exciting new research from Western Australia on #RSV in children! 🧫🧒 Data from the last 10 years reveals crucial insights into hospital attended reinfections. #PediatricHealth #Virology @ChrisBlyth74 @HannahMooreWA @ReSViNET

A key step to designing better pneumonia trials is designing better patient/ parent reported outcomes and PROMs. Great first paper by Dan Oakes, part of his MPH and a sign of great work to come @WCVID @telethonkids @epid_oakes @_charliemcleod @emmanattabi err.ersjournals.com/content/32/167…
In this paper, we explore the unusual return of hMPV in Western Australia, including a collapse in viral diversity, climate associated localised resurgences and a change in age distribution.
The impact of COVID-19 related NPIs go beyond COVID influenza and RSV. Research, led by Dr David Foley and WCVID-TKI-PathWest collaborators demonstrating the impact on human metapneumovirus @WCVID @Telethonkids @UWAresearch. mdpi.com/1999-4915/14/1…
