3. Introduction

Human Respiratory Syncytial Virus consists of two antigenic subtypes, A and B. Subtype B is more common and is considered the asymptomatic strain. More severe outbreaks are attributed to subtype A. The severity of the disease ranges from mild to life-threatening. It can cause mortality or morbidity in the elderly or immunosuppressed individuals. It is the most common pathogen leading to hospitalization in young children (Wiki: Human respiratory syncytial virus).
