    Document: RSV infection is one of the most common infections in children [2, 135] . In adult, RSV infection usually leads to self-limited upper respiratory illness [136] . However, severe RSV infection has been observed in elderly patients with lung diseases or in immunocompromised patients [137] . Current management of RSV includes bronchodilators, corticosteroids, antibiotics and supportive care [2] , but their efficacy is not satisfactory.
