ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

Fewer respiratory syncytial virus infections were observed in 2020-2021 with interseasonal resurgence. Children were more likely to have severe disease with less known risk factors in comparison with controls from 2018-2019. The overall codetection rates were similar, but with higher parainfluenza, rhinovirus/enterovirus, and lower influenza proportions compared with previous seasons.
