Overview
Transmission
RSV is spread by
- Direct contact with an infected individual
- Self-inoculation after touching contaminated surfaces[1]
- Infectious sections in form of large-particle aerosols or fomites[2]
Evidence suggests that distant contact requiring small particle aerosols does not cause RSV[1].
