Welcome to the third episode of our 5-episode series; respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) Roundtable, a collaborative project from Contemporary Pediatrics, Contagion, and Contemporary OB/GYN.

This series discusses several aspects of RSV including incidence rates, vaccines, and immunizations.

In this episode, our panel highlights what type of impact nirsevimab (Beyfortus; Sanofi, AstraZeneca) has made this RSV season.
