About
We’re excited to announce an upcoming webinar focused on the growing concern of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV).
This educational initiative aims to augment the understanding of RSV among GPs and specialist physicians, highlighting the severity of the disease in older adults, particularly those with comorbidities.
The webinar will provide a comprehensive overview of RSV’s disease burden in children and older adults, the importance of testing and diagnosis, and the necessity of notifying RSV as a disease upon diagnosis.
Importantly, it will shed light on the development of several RSV vaccines currently under regulatory review, and when available, to immunise patients against this disease and reduce its burden on the healthcare system.
Join us to better equip yourself in the fight against RSV and help improve outcomes for your patients. We look forward to seeing you there!
