Date:5/5/2008

ficient to treat severe RSV infection in infants. But it could be a critical part of a combination therapy that also included drugs to reduce RSV-induced lung inflammation and boost T-cell response.

The virus continues to replicate for days in the lungs of infected infants, and it induces inflammation as long as it replicates, Garofalo said. So stopping viral replication would be a very important part of any therapeutic strategy for RSV.
