WELCOME TO
"NOON
WEDNESDAY,"
%I'M MARISA
WOJCIK,
MULTIMEDIA
%JOURNALIST
WITH "HERE &
NOW"
ON
%PBS WISCONSIN.
%AN UNUSUAL
RISE
IN
NON-COVID
%RESPIRATORY
VIRUSES IS
WORRYING
%OFFICIALS AT
THE
WISCONSIN
LEVEL
%AND NATIONAL LEVEL.
%JOINING US
TO
EXPLAIN WHAT IS
%HAPPENING
IS TOM
HAUPT,
A
%RESPIRATORY
DISEASE
%EPIDEMIOLOGIST FROM
THE
%WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT
OF
HEALTH
%SERVICES.
%TOM, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
%JOINING
US.
%>>
AND THANK
YOU FOR
THE
%INVITATION TO GET
ON
THE
SHOW,
I
%REALLY APPRECIATE
HELPING
US
GET
%THE MESSAGE
OUT.
%>>
NOW,
YOU
REFER
TO
THESE
%NON-COVID
RELATED SEASONAL
%RESPIRATORY
VIRUSES
AS
RSVs.
%THERE'S ALSO
A
RISE IN
%PARAINFLUENZA CASES.
%WHEN
DO
WE
TYPICALLY
SEE
A
RISE
%IN THESE
CASES,
AND
WHY
ARE
THEY
%RISING RIGHT
NOW?
%>>
WELL,
RSV
COMMONLY
KNOWN
IS
A
%WINTER
VIRUS
THAT
USUALLY
%FOLLOWS
INFLUENZA
SEASON BY
A
%MONTH OR SO.
%WE SHOULD
BE
OUT OF
THE
RSV
%SEASON
RIGHT
NOW,
BUT
WE
SAW
%NOTHING IN THE
WINTER TIME AS
%WAS
THE
CASE
WITH
INFLUENZA.
%WE
DID
NOT
SEE
ANY
RSV.
%FOR SOME
REASON,
IT'S
%REAPPEARING RIGHT NOW.
%THE REASON FOR
IT,
BEHIND
IT,
WE
%JUST
DON'T
KNOW
FOR
SURE.
%THERE'S
THEORIES
THAT, YOU
KNOW,
%IT'S
BEEN
18,
19
MONTHS SINCE
WE
%HAD
RSV,
M
AYBE
IT'S
JUST
TIME
%THAT
IT
REAPPEARED.
%WE JUST
REALLY
ARE
KEENED OF
--
%KEENED OF
SHOCKED
THAT
IT
DID
%REAPPEAR.
%PARA
INFLU
ENSAI
IS
A
LATE
%SEASON
FLU,
BUT
ANOTHER ONE
WE
%ARE
SEEING
THE
SEASONAL
%CORONAVIRUS,
THE
NON-COVID
%CORONAVIRUSES, AND,
AGAIN,
THEY
%ARE
WINTER
VIRUSES
AS
WELL,
AND
%WE
SHOULD
NOT
BE
SEEING THEM
A
T
%THIS PARTICULAR TIME.
%IT
REMAINS TO BE
SEEN
WHY
THIS
%IS
HAPPENING.%I
MEAN, WE
TALKED
ABOUT IT
ON
A
%NATIONAL
LEVEL,
AND
NOBODY HAS
A
%REAL ANSWER
FOR
IT
AT
THIS
%POINT.
%>>
NOW,
WHY
DOES
THE
RISE IN
THE
%VIRUSES HAVE HEALTH
OFFICIALS,
%LIKE
YOURSELF,
CONCERNED?
%>>
WELL,
ONE
THING
WE ARE
%CONCERNED ABOUT IS
THAT
THE
%PEOPLE MIGHT
BE
COMPLACENT, YOU
%KNOW,
NOW
THAT
COVID IS
A
T
VERY,
%VERY LOW
NUMBERS, WE
ARE
VERY
%CONCERNED THAT
PEOPLE
MAY
THEY
%HAVE
RESPIRATORY
SYMPTOMS
AND IT
%IS
JUST
ALLERGIES
AND
NOT
%INFECTIOUS.
%THESE
VIRUSES,
INTRODUCED INTO
A
%LONG-TERM CARE FACILITY OR
A
DAY
%CARE,
IT COULD
BE
DEVASTATING.
%I
MEAN,
IT
COULD
SPREAD LIKE
%WILDFIRE,
CAUSE
SEVERE
ILLNESS%IN THE
ELDERLY
POPULATION
AND
%YOUNG CHILDREN.
%UNFORTUNATELY, WE HAVE
SEEN%SEVERE
CASES
BOTH
IN
WISCONSIN
%AND
NATIONWIDE FROM THE
VIRUSES.
%>>
NOW,
DOES
THE
DEPARTMENT
OF
%HEALTH
SERVICES
TRACK HOW
MANY
%PEOPLE ARE
CATCHING
THESE
%NON-COVID
RESPIRATORY
VIRUSES?
%HOW
DO
WE
KNOW
THAT
THERE'S
AN
%UPTICK RIGHT
NOW?
%>>
WELL, WE
HAVE
SEVERAL
%DIFFERENT
SURVEILLANCE
METHODS.
%ONE
IS
OUR
LABORATORY
%SURVEILLANCE
WHERE WE
HAVE
ABOUT
%100
LABS
THAT
REPORT
VOLUNTARILY%TO THE
STATE
LABORATORY
OF
%HYGIENE OF
WHAT
THEY
ARE
SEEING,%HOW MANY
TESTS
THEY ARE
RUNNING,%HOW MANY
ARE
POSITIVE.
%THAT'S
OUR
POSITIVITY
RATE,
AND,
%AGAIN,
PARAINFLUENZA IS
AT
10%,
%11%,
AND
WE
SHOULD
NOT
BE
THAT
%HIGH
AT
THIS
PARTICULAR
TIME.
%RSV IS
STARTING TO RISE
A LITTLE%BIT.
%CORONAVIRUS IS
ABOUT
6%,
AND
%WE'RE AT
THE
HIGHER
NUMBERS
THAN
%WHAT
WE
NORMALLY
SEE.
%WE
ALSO
HAVE
WHAT
WE
CALL
%"SYNDROME
IC
SURVEILLANCE
"
WITH
%EMERGENCY
DEPARTMENTS
THROUGHOUT
%THE
STATE.
%INFLU
ENSAI-LIKE
ILLNESS
IS
JUST
%COUGH
AND
SORE
THROAT
IS
WHAT IT
%IS,
BUT THAT
IS
DONE
THROUGH
35,
%36
DIFFERENT
EMERGENCY
%DEPARTMENTS, AND
WE
ARE
REALLY
%SEEING THAT
STARTING
TO
RISE
A%LITTLE
BIT,
ESPECIALLY
AMONGST
%YOUNG
CHILDREN,
0
TO
4
AGE
GROUP
%IS HIT
VERY,
VERY HARD.
%THOSE ARE
THE
TWO
MAIN WAYS
WE
%ARE
LOOKING AT
THIS,
AND
SO
WE
%DON'T
KNOW
THE
EXACT NUMBER OF
%PEOPLE WHO HAVE
IT,
BUT
OUR
%SURVEILLANCE SYSTEMS
INDICATE
%THE
SAME
THING THAT
THERE'S A
%RISE
IN
NON-COVID
VIRUSES.
%>>
AND
YOU
MENTIONED
THE
RISE
I
N
%CHILDREN AGE
0
TO
4,
AND
THERE
%ARE
HOSPITALIZATIONS ON THE
RISE
%NOT TYPICAL
FOR
THIS
TIME
O
F
%YEAR.
%WHAT
ARE
THOSE
NUMBERS AT?
%>>
THE
NUMBERS -- IT I
S
HARD TO
%SAY BECAUSE THESE
ARE
NOT
%REPORTABLE, PER
SE,
BUT WE
HAVE
%BEEN
IN
TOUCH
WITH
A
LOT OF
THE
%HOSPITALS
THAT
HAVE
PEDIATRIC
%UNITS ISSUE AND THEY
ARE
ALL
%TELLING
US
THAT
THEY
ARE
SEEING
%HIGHER
THAN
NORMAL
NUMBERS FROM
%VIRUSES OTHER THAN
COVID,
%INCOMING
RSV,
INCLUDING
%PARAINFLUENZA, AND
SOME
SO
SICK
%THEY
ARE
ADMITTED TO THE
%INTENSIVE CARE
UNIT.
%>>
NOW,
PEOPLE
ARE
BECOMING MORE
%CONCERNED
ABOUT
THE
MORE
%CONTAGIOUS
DELTA
VARIANT
OF
%COVID-19 THAT'S
SPREADING,
AND
%CHILDREN UNDER THE
AGE
OF
12
ARE
%STILL
UNABLE
TO
GET
VACCINATED
%AGAINST COVID-19.
%IS
IT
DIFFICULT
TO
DECIPHER
%SYMPTOMS
OF
THESE
OTHER
%RESPIRATORY
VIRUSES
FROM
%COVID-19
AND
ITS
VARIANTS?
%>>
YOU
MAKE
A
REALLY GOOD
POINT.
%IT
IS
VERY
DIFFICULT.
%THE ONLY
WAY
TO
KNOW
WHAT
VIRUS
%YOU
ARE
CARRYING
AND
POTENTIALLY
%SPREADING IS THROUGH
TESTING
AS
%THE
SYMPTOMS
ARE
EXTREMELY
%SIMILAR.
%REALLY CAN'T
DISTINGUISH BETWEEN
%ANY
OF
THEM,
COVID,
INFLUENZA,
%ANY OF
THE
PARTICULAR
VIRUSES%OTHER THAN
DOING
SOME
TESTING.
%>>
S
O
DHS
REPORTED
CONCERNS OF
%ELDERLY AND
THOSE
WITH
%UNDERLYING
HEALTH
CONDITIONS
ARE
%AT
MORE
RISK
FOR
SEVERE
ILLNESS%FROM THE
VIRUSES.
%WHY, IN
PARTICULAR,
ARE
CHILDREN
%BECOMING
SERIOUSLY
ILL,
AND
AS
%WE ALREADY
TALKED
ABOUT, BEING
%HOSPITALIZED?
%>>
WELL,
CHILDREN
DON'T
HAVE
THE
%NATURAL
IMMUNITY,
AND,
AGAIN,
%THERE'S NO
VACCINES
FOR
ANY OF
%THE
VIRUSES OTHER
THAN
INFLUENZA%AND
COVID.
%NONE
OF
THEM
HAVE
VACCINES.
%THEY HAVE
A
NATURAL
LOWER
%IMMUNITY TO
THESE
VIRUSES.
%IT
IS
ESPECIALLY
IMPORTANT
FOR
%YOUNG CHILDREN WHO
HAVE
ANY
KIND
%OF LUNG
PROBLEMS
OR
CARDIAC
%PROBLEMS, PREMATURE CHILDREN,
%THEY
ARE
VERY
SUSCEPTIBLE TO
%VERY
SEVERE
ILLNESS FROM
THE
%PARTICULAR
VIRUSES,
ESPECIALLY
%RSV AND
PARAINFLUENZA.
%ANY AGE
GROUP
CAN
COME DOWN WITH
%THE
VIRUSES, BUT THE
YOUNGER
%POPULATION, THE
OLDER
%POPULATION, AND THOSE
WITH
%UNDERLIE ILLNESSES WILL BE
HIT
%THE
HARDEST
AND
COULD
RUN
INTO
%SEVERE
ILLNESSES
LIKE
PNEUMONIA.
%KNOCK ON WOOD
WITH, WE
HAVE
NOT
%KNOWN OF
ANY
DEATHS YET.
%WE
HAVE
HEARD
FROM
OTHER
STATES
%THAT THERE
HAVE
BEEN
DEATHS,
BUT
%WE'RE
CONTINUING
TO
MONITOR THAT
%CLOSELY
AS
WELL
HOPING FOR THE%BEST.
%>>
YOU
JUST
MENTIONED THIS IS
%HAPPENING IN
OTHER
STATES,
AND
%AS
MORE
PANDEMIC
RESTRICTIONS%ARE
LIFTED,
IS
THAT
GIVING
THESE
%OTHER
VIRUSES
THEIR
OPPORTUNITY%TO
SPREAD
AFTER
WE
DIDN'T
REALLY
%SEE A
COLD
AND
FLU
SEASON
LAST
%WINTER?%>>
ABSOLUTELY.
%WITH
RESTRICTIONS BEING
LIFTED,
%IT
GIVES
OPPORTUNITY
FOR THESE
%VIRUSES TO
SPREAD.
%WE
ARE
ASKING
PEOPLE,
AGAIN,
IF
%THEY COME
DOWN
WITH ANY
KIND
OF
%ILLNESS, PLEASE USE
THE
SAME
%PRECAUTIONS YOU HAVE
BEEN
USING%IN
THE
LAST
18
MONTHS.
%STAY
AT
HOME,
IF
YOU
CAN
AT
ALL
%HELP
IT.
%IF
YOU
GO
OUT,
GET
THE
MASK
BACK
%OUT, PUT IT
ON,
BE
RESPECTFUL
T
O
%OTHERS, DON'T SPREAD IT
TO
%OTHERS.
%GOOD
HYGIENE,
COUGHING
INTO
YOUR
%SLEEVE AS I
DID,
UNFORTUNATELY,%AND
SNEEZING, JUST INTO
A
%TISSUE,
AND
WASH
YOUR HANDS.
%YOU
KNOW,
SIMPLE
STUFF,
BUT IT
%IS SOMETHING
THAT WE HAVE
TO
%CONTINUE ON
365
DAYS
A
YEAR,
BUT
%YOUR
POINT
IS
VERY
WELL-TAKEN%THAT THESE
RESTRICTIONS
COULD
%ACTUALLY
LEAD T
O
INCREASED
VIRUS
%SPREADING.
%>>
ARE
WE
ABLE
TO
LOOK
INTO ANY
%SORT
OF
CRYSTAL
BALL
AND
FORESEE
%THAT
THIS COLD
SEASON IS
GOING%TO BE
HAPPENING
YEAR
ROUND,
OR
%THAT THESE
VIRUSES
ARE
GOING
TO
%GAIN
ANY
SORT O
F
STRENGTH?
%>>
WELL,
EVERY
TIME WE
LOOKED
%INTO
A
CRYSTAL
BALL,
WE
FOUND
%THAT
WE
ARE
WRONG.
%YOU
KNOW,
AND, I
MEAN, IT IS
%JUST,
AGAIN,
THIS
COMES
AS
A
%SURPRISE TO
US.
%YOU
KNOW,
BUT,
AGAIN,
THIS
IS
%WHY
WE
CONTINUE AS
A
STATE
%HEALTH
DEPARTMENT,
LOCAL
HEALTH
%DEPARTMENTS
TO
MONITOR
VIRUSES
%AND ACTIVITY
365
DAYS
A
YEAR.
%SO I DON'T
KNOW WHAT
TO
EXPECT%IN THE FUTURE WITH
THIS.
%IDEALLY, IT SHOULDN'T
BE
HERE
BY
%NOW,
HOPEFULLY
IT'S
JUST
A
FLUKE
%HAPPENING JUST
THIS
ONE
YEAR
AND
%WE'LL GET
BACK
TO
NORMAL
%SEASONALITY IN THE
COMING
YEARS.
%IT IS HARD
TO
SAY
RIGHT
NOW.
%IT
IS
JUST
BEEN
SUCH
A
MIXED
UP
%YEAR AND A HALF
WHERE
EVERYTHING%YOU
THINK IS
GOING
TO
HAPPEN
%DOES NOT
HAPPEN,
AND VICE
VERSA
.
%>>
WHAT
DO
YOU
FORESEE
WITH
%SUMMER
ACTIVITIES
AND
AGE
GROUP
%DESCRIBED AS
YOUNG
CHILDREN
ARE
%VERY
ACTIVE
IN
THE
SUMMER.
%THERE
ARE
SUMMER CAMPS.
%THERE'S JUST
BEING
OUTSIDE,
%GOING TO THE
POOL,
AND
SO
WHAT
%DOES
THIS
MEAN
FOR
THOSE
%ACTIVITIES AND WHAT'S IT
MEAN
%FOR GOING
BACK TO
SCHOOL IN
THE
%FALL?
%>>
WELL,
AGAIN, WITH
THE
SUMMER
%CAMPS, ESPECIALLY
ONES WHERE
%THEY
HAVE
OVERNIGHTS, THEY
ARE
%NOT
USUALLY
THE
YOUNG
CHILDREN,
%BUT THE
OLDER
CHILDREN,
%ADOLESCENTS AND
TEENAGERS,
BUT
%THERE'S
ALREADY
BEEN
A
VERY
%LARGE
CAMP
OUTBREAK IN
COLORADO%THAT
HAPPENED.
%THAT COULD BE
COVID.
%I'M
NOT
QUITE
SURE
WHAT IT
WAS,
%BUT
THEY
HAD
OVER
80
CHILDREN
%WHO
WERE
POSITIVE
AND
HAD TO
%BE -- HAD
SIGNS
AND
SYMPTOMS
OF
%RESPIRATORY
VIRUSES.
%AGAIN,
BACK TO
SCHOOL,
WE'LL
BE
%DOING JUST
PREACHING
THE
SAME
%MESSAGE.
%IF
YOU
ARE
SICK,
DON'T
GO
TO
%SCHOOL.
%IF
YOU
DO
GO
TO
SCHOOL, I
MEAN,
%WE
ARE
NOT
SAYING YOU
HAVE
TO
%WEAR A
MASK,
BUT
THE
MASK
IS
%CERTAINLY AN
OPTION.
%THAT COULD BE
USED
AGAIN.
%BUT
THE
BIG
THING
IS,
USING
GOOD
%HYGIENE.
%REALLY
GOOD
HYGIENE,
RESPECT
%OTHERS WHO
ARE
AROUND YOU.
%TRY TO
LIMIT
THE
SPREAD AS
MUCH
%AS
YOU
POSSIBLY
CAN.
%ANOTHER
ISSUE
IS
DAYCARE.
%THERE'S BEEN A
LOT
O
F
DAYCARE
%OUTBREAKS,
AND,
FORTUNATELY, WE
%HAVE
NOT
HAD
ONE
IN
WISCONSIN
%YET, BUT WE
ARE
MONITORING
THAT
%SITUATION, BUT I KNOW FOR
A
FACT
%SEVERAL OTHER
STATES
HAVE
HAD
%VERY
LARGE
OUTBREAKS.
%15 TO
20,
30
CHILDREN
COMING
%DOWN
WITH
DIFFERENT
VIRUSES.
%PARENTS CANNOT
SEND
THEIR
%CHILDREN
TODAY --
TO
DAYCARES,
%DON'T GIVE
THEM
A
FEVER
REDUCER
%SO THEY
ARE
ELIGIBLE TO
GET IN
%THE
DAYCARE
AND
PICK
THEM
UP
%FOUR
HOURS
LATER.
%WE
NEED
GOOD
COMPLIANCE FROM
ALL
%OF
PARENTS
AND
JUST
PRACTICE
OUR
%GOOD HYGIENE
AND
KEEP
PUSHING
%IT.
%>>
YOU
MENTIONED WE DON'T
WANT
%TO
GET
COMPLACENT,
IS
THAT
%REFERRING TO THE MASK
WEARING,
%HAND
WASHING,
AND
DO
YOU
FORESEE
%FUTURE HEALTH
GUIDANCE OF
%WEARING
MASKS
IN
PUBLIC
SPACES
%AND
CONGREGATIONAL
SETTINGS
AND
%SOCIAL
DISTANCING,
DO
YOU
SEE
%THAT
AS
LONG-TERM
HEALTH
%GUIDANCE
THAT
THE
DEPARTMENT
%MIGHT CONSIDER
TO
TRY
AND
%PREVENT
THESE
OUTBREAKS?
%>>
I
THINK
MASKS
ARE
GOING TO
B
E
%HERE
TO
STAY T
O
SOME
EXTENT.
%I DON'T KNOW
THAT
WE'LL
EVER
GET
%BACK
TO
ANOTHER
MASK
MANDATORY
%MASKING, BUT I
THINK PEOPLE%SHOULD
BE
AWARE
MASKING DID
%WORK.
%IT
PREVENTS
ILLNESSES
FROM
%COVID, AND
IT
DID
PREVENT
%ILLNESSES
FROM
INFLUENZA,
AND
IT
%IS SOMETHING
THAT CAN BE
USED
IN
%THE
FUTURE, AND
I
HOPE
IT
DOES
%NOT
COME DOWN
TO
A
POINT
OF
A
%MANDATORY
MASKING AS
BEFORE,
%BUT,
AGAIN, IT
IS -- WITH THE
%MASKING,
SOMETIMES IT
IS
BEING
%DONE TOO
QUICKLY,
SOME
STATES
%STOPPING
MANDATES
A
LITTLE TOO
%EARLY,
IN
MY
OPINION,
BUT IT
%IS -- IT IS
A
PROVEN
METHOD THAT
%IT
WORKS
AND
SOMETHING
THAT WILL
%BE IN THE
ARSENAL
OF
COMING
%YEARS AS
WELL.
%>>
WE
SAW
WITH
COVID
AND
SEEN
%WITH
VIRUSES
BEFORE
THAT
PEOPLE
%WHO
ARE
NOT
AS
AFFECTED
STILL
%CAN TRANSMIT I
T
TO
MORE
%VULNERABLE
POPULATIONS.
%IS
THAT
WHAT'S
HAPPENING
RIGHT
%NOW,
AND
WHERE
EXACTLY
SHOULD
%PEOPLE
BE MOST
CAREFUL?
%>>
WELL,
YEAH.
%THERE IS
ALWAYS
THAT
POSSIBILITY
%OF
PEOPLE BEING
ABLE TO
SPREAD
%IT AT
LEAST
A
DAY
BEFORE.
%I
KNOW
WITH
COVID
IT CAN B
E
%SEVERAL DAYS
BEFORE,
AND
THEY
%REALLY
HAVE NOT
STUDIED
IT
AS
%MUCH WITH THE
PARA
INFLUENZA
AND
%RSV,
BUT
WITH
INFLUENZA,
AT
%LEAST 24
HOURS
BEFORE
THE
ACTUAL
%SYMPTOMS START,
YOU
CAN
SPREAD
%TO OTHERS.
%YOU
WANT TO
BE
EXTREMELY
%CAREFUL, YOU
KNOW,
SPREADING
IT
%TO
VULNERABLE
POPULATIONS.
%AGAIN, IF PEOPLE
HAVE
ANY
KIND
%OF
SIGN
OR
SYMPTOM,
FOREGO
THAT
%VISIT TO
A
LONG-TERM CARE
%FACILITY, ALTHOUGH
THEY ARE
%OPENING UP
IN
ADMISSIONS
NOW
AND
%VISITATIONS, DON'T
G
O
IN
THERE
%IF YOU
DON'T HAVE
TO.
%AGAIN, THESE
VIRUSES
GOT
SPREAD%VERY
QUICKLY, WITHIN
THE
%FACILITY,
A
FACILITY
WILL
SPREAD
%QUICKLY, AND
WE
HAD
MAJOR
%OUTBREAKS IN THE PAST
IN
%WISCONSIN
THAT
UNFORTUNATELY
%REPORTED
IN
FATALITIES AS WELL.
%LIMIT TIME
WITH
ALL
VULNERABLE
%POPULATION.
%AGAIN, THAT'S
YOUNGER
CHILDREN,
%OLDER
POPULATIONS,
AND
THOSE
%WITH
UNDERLYING
DISEASE.
%MAYBE YOU
DON'T
KNOW,
BUT
THAT'S
%WHY
YOU
KEEP
PRACTICING
GOOD
%HYGIENE, AND, YOU
KNOW,
BE
%RESPECTFUL TO
OTHERS
AND
TRY
NOT
%TO
SPREAD
THIS
PARTICULAR
%VIRUSES.
%>>
FOR
THOSE
WHO
ARE
ELIGIBLE TO
%GET
A
VACCINE, WILL
GETTING
A
%VACCINE
HELP
DECIPHER
BETWEEN
%WHAT
KIND
OF
VIRUS
SOMEONE MIGHT
%BE
CONTRACTING?
%>>
IT
COULD.
%I
MEAN, WITH
THE --
WE
CERTAINLY
%ENCOURAGE
INFLUENZA
VACCINE
AND
%COVID
VACCINE,
BUT,
YOU
KNOW, AS%FAR AS
OTHER
VIRUSES,
YOU'LL
%NEVER --
SYMPTOMS AND
SIGNS
ARE%PRETTY MUCH
THE
SAME.
%
SO,
AGAIN,
THE
ONLY
WAY
YOU'LL
%KNOW IS
TO
TEST.
%THE
BENEFIT
OF
BEING
VACCINATED
%AGAINST COVID
AND
AGAINST
%INFLUENZA IS THAT
YOU
DON'T
HAVE
%ANY OF
THE
CO-VIRUSES
OR
ANY
RSV
%OR
COVID
TOGETHER,
WHICH,
AGAIN,
%DEADLY
FOR
ANYONE,
ANY
%POPULATION TO HAVE
MULTIPLE%DIFFERENT
VIRUSES AT THE SAME%TIME.
%AGAIN, WE
ENCOURAGE
VACCINE AS
%QUICKLY
AS
POSSIBLE,
CONSIDER
IT
%FOR
YOURSELF
AND
THOSE
AROUND
%YOU.
