My literature review revolved around RSV infection symptoms, virology, treatments, and national issues. Also incorporating the emotional turmoil severe RSV cases.
In the U.S alone, over 120,000 infants are placed into hospitals annually; over 200 of those cases result in death due to RSV infections (Brearey & Smyth, 2007, p. 141).
RSV awareness, prevention, treatments are vital for the well being of future infants (and even the older generations)!

For over 150 years, clinical scientists have identified Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) by its symptomatic title “congestive catarrhal fever” (Brearey & Smyth, 2007, p. 141).
Yet the question still remains......
What exactly is RSV?
RSV is a highly contagious respiratory infection effecting most children before their second birthday.
Despite being a common virus, high risk infants can suffer from severe cases.
Older adults with heart and lung diseases are also high risk.
RSV infections generally peak during fall, winter, and spring.

Symptoms of RSV infections commonly appear about four to six days after exposure.
This includes.....

The wait is too long!!
My project involved promoting the awareness of RSV to my local community such as local pregnancy centers, expecting parents, and other audience needing to know more about this virus.
I went to a conference in Northern Virginia at Navy Hospital and National Institutes of Health (NIH) with my Aunt Alida (who works at NIH).
The information discussed throughout this presentation, I want to share with the public!
Although increasing awareness to the local public will not biologically "stop" the virus, it will stimulate alertness and prevention of RSV. Brochures, tri-folds, and orally communicating information about RSV to the community will help formulate more knowledge about RSV.
