A 6-year-old boy from Michigan has died from respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV, amid a surge of infections in children across the country.
The boy was hospitalized at Corewell Health Beaumont Troy Hospital in the Detroit suburbs when he died at 3:41 a.m. Wednesday.
Deaths associated with RSV are most frequently occurring in those under a year old and those 65 and older.Researchers are now looking into an RSV vaccine for pregnant women, which would offer protection to their newborn babies. "Right now, we've got highest number of respiratory child hospitalization that we've seen in total over a few years, really breaking some records there," Arwady said. "Our pediatric ICU capacity is especially stretched."As RSV cases and hospitalizations surge, only 6 percent of pediatric ICU beds are open in Illinois
The vaccine would be given to expecting mothers in the late second to third trimester in one shot. They would then pass the antibodies to their babies.'Tripledemic' of flu, RSV, COVID could result in 'explosion' of sick patients, Chicago doctors warn "RSV infects everyone, but among young children are those that are most susceptible are those in the first few months of life we have a high probability now of protecting against serious illness and hospitalization," Gruber said.
Many hospitals across the country are feeling the strain amid a spike in respiratory illnesses, including RSV and the flu.
