Article Synopsis
- This study examined pediatric respiratory infections, specifically SARS and RSV, after the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 in Brazil, comparing characteristics of affected children.
- Conducted between April 2020 and April 2021, it analyzed children under 48 months admitted to a pediatric hospital, collecting samples for viral testing and using logistic regression to identify clinical differences.
- Results showed that children with RSV were generally younger, exhibited less fever, and had more upper airway symptoms compared to those with COVID-19, indicating distinct illness manifestations between the two viruses.
