Blum Center Program: MGfC Parenting Series – Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) in Children
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common illness that affects the airways. In older children and teens, RSV is often mild with cold-like symptoms. In babies and children under age 5, RSV can be very serious. In this Massachusetts General Hospital Blum Center presentation from November 30, 2022, our panel of experts from Mass General for Children share their expertise on RSV, including symptoms, treatment, prevention tips, and more.
The MGfC Parenting Series is a collaboration between the Maxwell & Eleanor Blum Patient and Family Learning Center and Mass General for Children.
