Article Synopsis
- The COVID-19 pandemic led to significant changes in the occurrence of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in Gwangju, South Korea, resulting in no RSV during the 2020/2021 season and a three-fold increase in incidence in the 2021/2022 season, especially in children under 5.
- Whole-genome sequencing of RSV samples pre- and post-pandemic showed shifts in lineages, with only the A.D.3.1 lineage found in the 2021/2022 season, while multiple lineages, including A.D.1 and A.D.3, co-circulated in the following season.
- The study emphasizes the importance of ongoing surveillance to understand
Coxsackievirus A6 (CV-A6) has emerged as the predominant causative agent of hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) in young children. Since the declaration of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) as a global pandemic, the incidence of infectious diseases, including HFMD, has decreased markedly. When social mitigation was relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2022, the re-emergence of HFMD was observed in Gwangju, South Korea, and seasonal characteristics of the disease appeared to have changed.

If the human motion is derived rapidly as design parameters change, a developer could determine the optimal parameters. For example, the optimal design of the door panel of an automobile can be obtained for a human operator to conduct the easiest ingress and egress motion.
