Overview
Historical Perspective
- RSV was first identified in 1956. The virus was isolated in chimpanzees with respiratory tract infections and was therefore referred to as chimpanzee coryza agent. (https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.3181/00379727-92-22538)
- In 1957, two similar viruses were isolated in infants with respiratory illnesses, which demonstrated to be indistinguishable from chimpanzee coryza agent. The virus was confirmed in humans and to be associated with respiratory illnesses in children. (https://academic.oup.com/aje/article-abstract/66/3/281/160550?redirectedFrom=fulltext&login=false)

- The virus was renamed in subsequent years to ”respiratory syncytial virus” given the characteristic cytopathic effect on tissue culture cells by which the infected epithelial cells clump together to form large cell-like structure known as syncytia .
