Although the RSV trend changed within 2 years after the COVID-19 outbreak, it returned to its usual seasonality last year. After the repeal of all COVID-19 measures and the normal life began, the number of RSV-positive patients and RSV-related hospitalizations increased, and the clinical outcomes of RSV worsened. This may be a result of decreased herd immunity due to a change in society's attitude toward epidemic diseases.
