Just when we thought the global impact of COVID-19 was behind us, a new respiratory virus has emerged as a growing concern for public health worldwide. Human Metapneumovirus, or HMPV as we know it, emerged in the Netherlands in 2001 however, the recent outbreak in China has alarmed the world. According to the American Lung Association, the likelihood of developing serious complications due to hMPV is seen in children with compromised immune systems and adults. It is most common in children below 5 years of age. In this session, Dr. Reddy has answered some common questions related to HMPV, its symptoms, its causes, risks, and above all how we can protect our children from it. By watching this workshop, you will learn about the following: What is HMPV? How is HMPV different from Covid-19? Is HMPV a new virus, or has it been around for a while? How does HMPV spread? What are the common symptoms of HMPV in children? Can adults get infected with HMPV, or is it mostly a threat to children? How severe can HMPV be for children? What are the potential complications of HMPV in children? Is HMPV more dangerous for children with existing health conditions, like asthma or weakened immune systems? Should we be concerned about HMPV during the colder months when respiratory infections are more common? Is there any vaccination for HMPV? What precautions can be taken to prevent the spread of HMPV?

RSV or Respiratory Syncytial Virus is a virus that affects the lungs and airways. It gives rise to symptoms somewhat similar to those common colds. According to research by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, RSV affects an estimated 64 million people and causes 160,000 deaths each year. Another report by the National Institute Of Health suggests the rates of RSV detection in younger children, lying in the age group of 0 to 5 years is quite high as compared to children from other age groups. The report also states that there is a peak in RSV during monsoon and winters. In this session, Dr Jaydeep Choudhury, has elaborated on the topic to help us understand how we can protect our infants from this potentially life threatening infection. Questions Is RSV contagious? For how long does the infection last? What are the common modes of transmission? Are there any complications associated with RSV? Why are infants more susceptible to RSV? Are there any preventive measures a parent can take to lower the risks of RSV infection in their new born and children? Does RSV have a cyclic or seasonal pattern or is it a risk throughout the year? Does it affect all infants or it affects only premature babies or babies with other conditions, could you please explain this ? Why is it important to consult a doctor? What precautions should be taken if any of the parents is infected with RSV? What steps can be taken to help a baby with RSV feel better?
