The RSV injection also very rarely causes side effects. In some cases, babies may experience mild symptoms within 2 to 14 days, such as slight redness at the injection site, a mild rash, or a fever. If your baby develops a fever, contact your GP. #rsvpatientnetwork #RSV

Researcher Dagmar is helping us better understand how RSV in childhood may affect long-term lung health through the CLARITY project. Research suggests that children who were severely ill with RSV and admitted to the ICU may have a higher risk of developing asthma later in life.
