Approximately 30% of the RSV-positive young infants (<6 months old) had possible index cases among children <5 years old in the same household.

Document: In this study, we analyzed the patterns of RSV transmission among children less than 5 years old in households of 2 municipalities, Caibiran and Kawayan, of Biliran Province, the Philippines. Approximately 30% of the RSV-positive young infants (<6 months old) had possible index cases among children <5 years old in the same household. These results suggested that older children in the same household are an important RSV infection source for young infants. We also analyzed who among children with confirmed RSV became possible secondary cases. The RSV-positive older children aged 1 year and 2-4 years caused a higher rate of possible secondary cases (30.3% and 32.4%, respectively) than infants, especially young infants (11.9% for young infants). Notably, in households with young infants and RSV-positive older children, Abbreviations: ARI, acute respiratory infection; RSV, respiratory syncytial virus. a In 2 households with 3 RSV-ARI cases, 1 child with 1st RSV-ARI was counted twice for each 2nd RSV-ARI.
