Protect Yourself and Your Kids from RSV as the Season’s Peak Nears
‘Tis the season for sniffles! Respiratory syncytial virus also known as RSV is a contagious virus that impacts the respiratory tract and lungs. It’s most common from October through March with peak season in the winter.
While most children will be exposed to this virus before the age of two, it can affect people of all ages. In fact, adults with certain chronic medical conditions are more at risk. Houston Life co-host Derrick Shore recently sat down with Dr. Isil Halac, a pediatrician with Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital to learn more about how to stay healthy during RSV season.
Also, Memorial Hermann is also proud to share its updated Find a Pediatrician page!
