As we age, most aspects of the immune system deteriorate. This aging effect put the elderly at greater risk of infections including RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus). RSV infection can be severe for older adults, especially those who have certain medical conditions. Since RSV usually causes cold-like symptoms, it is often left undiagnosed and untreated properly. 

Mortality rate of RSV infections in the elderly is approximately 12%

compared to RSV-associated mortality in children 0.12%

RSV causes infections of the lungs and respiratory tract. There is no specific medication for RSV infection. Treatment involves symptomatic care which may vary among individuals. RSV-associated mortality rate in the elderly is considerably higher compared to children. Disease severity increases in those with underlying conditions, such as respiratory diseases (asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or COPD) and chronic diseases (e.g. diabetes, kidney disease and heart disease). The RSV vaccine helps strengthen the immune system while minimizing the risk of infection and disease severity. More importantly, it helps reduce RSV-associated mortality in the elderly.
