RSV Testing In Dallas-Fort Worth, TX

RSV or respiratory syncytial virus is a common respiratory virus that affects people of all ages. It is highly contagious and can spread easily through droplets from coughing and sneezing or by touching contaminated surfaces. It is especially dangerous for infants and older adults with weakened immune systems. RSV can cause mild cold-like symptoms in healthy individuals, but it can lead to severe respiratory infections such as bronchiolitis and pneumonia in vulnerable populations.

RSV testing is crucial for the early detection and management of this viral infection. Prompt diagnosis allows for timely treatment and helps prevent the spread of the virus to others. Moreover, RSV testing can help determine the severity of the infection and guide appropriate care for patients with underlying health conditions.
