Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of lower respiratory tract infection in young children in both the community and hospital setting. METHODS: The clinical presentation, patient and phylogenetic characteristicsof laboratory-confirmed cases of RSV, as well as risk factors for nosocomial infectionat Red Cross War Memorial Children's Hospital in Cape Town were analysed. A multiplex PCR...
