Respiratory syncytial virus infection in mice [PDF]
The A2 strain of human respiratory syncytial virus replicated in the nose and lung of BALB/c mice, with virus growing to higher titers in older animals than in younger animals. Virus was recovered from the nose between days 2 and 7 with peak titers on days 3 and 4, and from the lungs between days 2 and 9, with peak titers on days 4 through 6.

Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection of the Newborn [PDF]
In an outbreak of respiratory syncytial (R.S.) virus infection in a maternity hospital the respiratory illness was of a mild nature and the virus was not found in infants without respiratory symptoms. This confirms the suggestion that R.S. virus can infect infants at a very early age.

Respiratory syncytial virus infections [PDF]
Summary RS virus was isolated from 10·5% of the specimens examined in the MRC/PHLS hospital survey and from 0·9% of those in the general practice survey. The highest isolation rates were in infants with lower respiratory tract infections. Dyspnoea, wheezing and cough were the predominant clinical features.

Simulating near-field enhancement in transmission of airborne viruses with a quadrature-based model [PDF]
Airborne viruses, such as influenza, tuberculosis, and SARS-CoV-2, are transmitted through virus-laden particles expelled when an infectious person sneezes, coughs, talks, or breathes. These virus-laden particles are more highly concentrated in the expiratory jet of an infectious person than in a well-mixed room, but this near-field enhancement in ...
