Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common respiratory virus that usually causes mild, cold-like symptoms but can also affect the lungs. While most children recover from an RSV infection in a week or two, RSV infection can be dangerous for infants and some young children, causing difficulty breathing, low oxygen levels, and dehydration. RSV is the leading cause of infant hospitalizations in the United States. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends two new immunizations to prevent severe RSV disease in infants and older babies.

During this COCA Call, presenters will give a comprehensive overview of CDC’s new recommendations to prevent severe RSV disease in infants, including clinical guidance and considerations for administering RSV immunizations to infants and pregnant people during weeks 32 through 36 of pregnancy.

If you are unable to attend the live COCA Call, the recording will be available for viewing on the COCA Call webpage a few hours after the live event ends.

The slide set will be available on the day of the call on the COCA Call webpage under Call Materials.

Free Continuing Education (CE) will be offered for this COCA Call.

Registration is not required.
