RSV is transmitted from an infected child by secretions from the nose or mouth by direct contact or by droplets in the air. The period of greatest contagiousness is in the first 2 to 4 days of the infection. RSV can last between 2 to 8 days, but symptoms can remain up to 3 weeks. RSV occurs more commonly during the winter and early spring. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infects almost all children at least once before they are 2 years old.
