RSV
RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) is a highly contagious respiratory virus, common in the fall through spring. Nearly all children will have had RSV by age 2. While it typically causes mild, cold-like symptoms, it can lead to severe respiratory illness in infants and older adults.
NEPH is offering RSV vaccinations this fall for adults 75+. Call our office at 1-877-442-1212 to make an appointment or book online.
