Published Online: Nov 4th 2022

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) present a significant disease burden in children and older adults. Currently, there are no approved vaccines against RSV. In this touchINFECTIOUS DISEASES interview, we met with Prof. Michael Ison (Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago, IL, USA) to discuss the health burden of RSV infection in older adults, and current vaccines under development such as protein vaccines, adjuvant protein vaccines, viral vector vaccines and mRNA vaccine candidates.

The abstract entitled: ‘Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Prefusion F Protein Candidate Vaccine (RSVPreF3 OA) is Efficacious in Adults ≥ 60 Years of Age‘ (Abstract #LB745)’ was presented at IDWeek 2022, 19-23 October 2022.
