Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, wastewater-based surveillance has been used to track circulation levels of SARS-CoV-2.
Public health action needed to mitigate the impact of respiratory pathogens for 2023-24 winter season in Europe
In an epidemiological update, the ECDC urges EU/EEA Member States to strengthen vaccination campaigns and prepare for the possible need to increase emergency department and ICU capacity
Evaluation of the effectiveness and impact of Nirsevimab in Galicia
The NIRSE-GAL study shows in real time the evolution of the coverage achieved by immunisation with Nirsevimab in children and compares RSV admissions in different population groups of children and adults in Galicia in Spain with previous years.
First results in using new tools to tackle respiratory syncytial virus
Protecting infants from RSV with new tools: vaccines for pregnant women and use of monoclonal antibodies have been approved for use in the European Union to prevent RSV among young children. Are those tools working?

EHMA publishes a paper based on expert insight from across Europe, exploring the challenges and opportunities of implementing RSV immunisation programmes in different country contexts.
Risk factors for severe respiratory syncytial virus infection during the first year of life: development and validation of a clinical prediction model
Novel immunisation methods against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) are emerging, but knowledge of risk factors for severe RSV disease is insufficient for optimal targeting of interventions against them.
