RSV on the decline but not gone
We are continuing to see RSV at endemic levels (>10% in the community). The most recent numbers show that 13% of specimens submitted for testing are positive for RSV. From this, we estimate that RSV season will continue for another 4-6 weeks, through the month of April. We also continue to see quite a bit of influenza (both A and B) circulating. The As outnumber the Bs but both are prevalent. In addition to RSV and Influenza, we have seen a uptick in the numbers of other respiratory viruses, both Parainfluenza and Adenovirus are circulating but not much human metapneumovirus as compared with previous years.
