Examining the interseasonal resurgence of respiratory syncytial virus in Western Australia

David Anthony Foley et al.

Summary: Following a relative absence in winter 2020, there was a large resurgence of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) detections during the 2020/2021 summer in Western Australia, linked to SARS-CoV-2 public health measures. The peak of RSV-positive admissions in 2020 was higher than in 2019, with older RSV-naive children being more affected. The increase in RSV-positive non-bronchiolitis admissions in 2020 raises concerns for regions with strict COVID-19 public health measures.

Respiratory Syncytial Virus Outbreaks Are Predicted after the COVID-19 Pandemic in Tokyo, Japan

Lina Madaniyazi et al.

Summary: Nonpharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) for COVID-19 have a significant impact on the activity of respiratory syncytial virus infections (RSV), leading to a decline in RSV transmission. However, prolonged NPIs may increase the susceptible population and enhance the risk of large-scale RSV outbreaks.

Early Impact of Social Distancing in Response to Coronavirus Disease 2019 on Hospitalizations for Acute Bronchiolitis in Infants in Brazil

Frederico Friedrich et al.

Summary: The study found a significant reduction in hospital admissions for acute bronchiolitis in infants under 1 year old in Brazil due to the social distancing measures implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic. The reduction ranged from 58% to 93% across different regions of Brazil, indicating the important impact of social distancing on reducing the transmission of respiratory viruses.

Epidemiological characteristics of four common respiratory viral infections in children

Guohong Zhu et al.

Summary: The study found that the rates of viral infection in children vary by different ages and seasons, with the highest positivity rate of adenovirus appearing in the preschool period, respiratory syncytial virus being highest in infants, and influenza virus increasing with age. The total positive rate of viral infection in different seasons is highest in winter, with influenza positivity rate also being highest in winter.

Which influenza viruses will emerge following the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic?

Karen L. Laurie et al.

Summary: The world has experienced five pandemics in just over one hundred years, with four caused by influenza and one by coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). During the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, there has been a 99% reduction in global influenza isolation. It is expected that influenza will re-emerge and circulate again after the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, and the potential for emerging influenza viruses is being examined.

Significant impact of nationwide SARS-CoV-2 lockdown measures on the circulation of other respiratory virus infections in Austria

Monika Redlberger-Fritz et al.

Summary: The study found that the implementation of lockdown measures in Austria led to a significant reduction in cumulative cases of different respiratory virus infections, especially for seasonal influenza, respiratory syncytial virus, and human metapneumovirus, resulting in the end of annual epidemics. However, a re-increase of rhinovirus infections was observed after the lockdown measures were relaxed.

Impact of public health measures on the post-COVID-19 respiratory syncytial virus epidemics in France

Jacques Fourgeaud et al.

Summary: The study described the impact of public health measures on RSV severe infections in France during the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2020/2021 RSV outbreak in France involved more children aged 6 to 11 months, but less infants aged < 6 months and less adults compared to previous outbreaks. The outbreak in 2020/2021 resulted in shorter hospital stays, less frequent admission to intensive care unit, and less use of non-invasive ventilation or high-flow nasal oxygen therapy than previous outbreaks.

Delayed respiratory syncytial virus epidemic in children after relaxation of COVID-19 physical distancing measures, Ashdod, Israel, 2021

Moran Weinberger Opek et al.

Summary: After low RSV infections in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, hospitalised children saw a resurgence in spring/summer 2021 following relaxation of public health measures, with higher case numbers and incidence rates, especially in urban neighborhoods with lower socioeconomic status. The outbreak had similar clinical presentation and severity as previous seasons, highlighting the need for re-evaluation of palivizumab administration and surge capacity planning.

Kyu Young Park et al.

Summary: After Canada implemented social distancing and quarantine measures, the national level of seasonal respiratory virus infections decreased significantly, with the 2019-2020 influenza season ending earlier than usual. The overall test positivity for respiratory viruses during the COVID-19 period was notably low.

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the prevalence of respiratory viruses in children with lower respiratory tract infections in China

Pengcheng Liu et al.

Summary: The study found a significant reduction in RSV, ADV, FluA, FluB, and MPV infections, but an increase in RV infections among hospitalized children in China in 2020 compared to 2019. PIV infections showed a resurgence after September 2020, while mixed infections were significantly less frequent in 2020. The study highlights the impact of NPIs during the COVID-19 pandemic on the prevalence of common respiratory viruses in China.

Changes in respiratory virus infection trends during the COVID-19 pandemic in South Korea: the effectiveness of public health measures

Ji Young Park et al.

Summary: This study found that high compliance to personal preventive measures, including mask wearing, during the COVID-19 pandemic led to a significant decrease in respiratory virus infections, particularly indoors and on public transportation. The influenza epidemic in 2019 to 2020 ended quickly with a faster decline than previous seasons, while the overall respiratory virus positivity rate decreased during the pandemic compared to previous years. Hospital surveillance also showed a decrease in hospitalized patients with acute viral respiratory illnesses.

Assessment of global asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection and management practices from China

Zheng Chen et al.

Summary: Ongoing research has shown that asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection is widespread in COVID-19 populations, with potential infectivity even before symptoms appear. Identifying asymptomatic infected individuals through nucleic acid testing is crucial in preventing disease spread, and China's successful prevention and control measures, like the "Four Early" policy, serve as a valuable model for other countries to follow.
