About the WHO RSV Roadshow:
With new products emerging, now is the time to raise awareness and support global, regional, and country decision-making around RSV prevention, policy, and implementation preparedness. To advance these efforts, the World Health Organization, PATH, and the ReSViNET Foundation have developed seven web events to inform stakeholders and raise awareness about RSV disease, new prevention tools, and delivery considerations.

What is RSV?
Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is the world’s top cause of severe respiratory infections and hospitalisation in infants and young children. Groundbreaking products for preventing RSV disease in early life have achieved licensure, including a vaccine given in pregnancy and long-acting monoclonal antibodies given to newborns. These tools are a chance to address this under-recognised cause of millions of childhood hospitalisations, thousands of deaths, and significant strain on livelihoods and health systems. Next steps will be to ensure that these tools achieve global market entry to open the door for widespread use.
