It also can live on surfaces (such as countertops or doorknobs) and on hands and clothing, so it can be easily spread when a person touches something contaminated.RSV can spread rapidly through schools and childcare centers. Babies often get it when older kids carry the virus home from school and pass it to them. Almost all kids are infected with RSV at least once by the time they’re 2 years old.RSV infections often occur in epidemics that last from late fall through early spring. Respiratory illness caused by RSV such as bronchiolitis or pneumonia usually lasts about a week, but some cases may last several weeks.Doctors typically diagnose RSV by taking a medical history and doing a physical exam.

He or she may require fluids and possibly treatment for breathing problems.At home, make a child with an RSV infection as comfortable as possible, allow time for recovery, and provide plenty of fluids.
