Amid nationwide coverage of the RSV crisis in children, public health experts warn that the virus is also dangerous for grandparents.
Right now, RSV hospitalization rates in adults are about 9 times higher than the 2018-2019 season and nearly 2 times higher than the 2021-2022 season at the same time of the year, according to the Centers for Disease Control.
Each year, an estimated 60,000 to 120,000 older adults are hospitalized and 6,000 to 10,000 die due to RSV infection, according to the CDC.
