RSV is a highly infectious respiratory disease which can be fatal in young children and seniors. It will probably send some here off the rails but Moderna has an mRNA vaccine for it in Phase 1 clinical trial.

My youngest child was hospitalized for a week with 3 days in ICU with it at 6 months of age some 25 years ago.

RSV is a nasty virus in infants and hospitalization is really traumatizing in and of itself.

A vaccine would be a miraculous lifesaver.

Well...if it goes thru “normal” trials that would help.
