Pediatric doctors in five states said their hospital bed capacity was strained due to a sudden influx of RSV patients.
"We’re really having a capacity problem like I’ve never seen before," said Dr. Charlotte Boney, pediatrician-in-chief at Baystate Children’s Hospital in Springfield, Massachusetts.
The CDC said it does not keep a national count of RSV cases, hospitalization or deaths, but it tracks changes in the virus' spread. "We have observed a rise in RSV in multiple U.S. regions, and some regions are nearing seasonal peak levels," a CDC spokesperson said.. That’s not far from the number in the same week of October 2021 but far higher than in October 2020.
