“We are taking this awareness initiative to help provide more information to the public
because RSV is a real threat; it’s like a thief that takes away the patient’s ability to
breathe. The good news is that it is preventable, so no life should be lost because of
RSV. Breathing normally again requires more than just rest, especially when RSV is
involved,” said Deborah Seifert, Pfizer MISP Cluster Lead.

“RSV is a viral infection that can be deadly, and since it commands a great rate of morbidity and mortality, there is no other available treatment than prevention through vaccination. Vaccine providers have been supporting the local health sector in addressing these challenges by raising awareness on the illness and improving vaccine availability. This enhances the landscape of RSV prevention to a better and more achievable outcome and increased patient survival.”
