GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — Cases of RSV, respiratory syncytial virus, have been reported in Northeast Wisconsin, a respiratory virus that affects young children especially hard.
Dr. Brad Burmeister, an emergency medicine physician with Bellin Health, says hospitals in the area are seeing the impact of multiple viruses. Those viruses include RSV and rhinovirus, which causes the common cold and cases of influenza.
Burmeister says hospitals also continue to see patients with COVID-19.
Burmeister says parents may want to contact their child’s pediatrician or seek medical care if their child is experiencing flu-like symptoms or appears to have to work hard to breathe.
