The long road to protect infants against severe RSV lower respiratory tract illness

2019-05-02

Abstract excerpt

Severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) lower respiratory tract illness (LRTI) in infants has proven challenging to prevent. In the last 50 years, conceptually different approaches failed to evolve into viable preventive alternatives for routine use. Inactivated RSV vaccine (that is, formalin-inactivated RSV) elicited severe LRTI in RSV-infected toddlers pre-immunized as infants; early purified F protein approach...
