The Regional Health Agency reports that “adults and older children who are carriers of respiratory syncytial virus usually have no signs or have a simple cold. So many people carry the virus and are contagious without knowing it.
The virus is easily transmitted person to person through saliva, coughs and sneezes. The virus can remain on hands and objects (as on toys, pacifiers, “cuddly toys”).
Also, in order to avoid the transmission of the virus, it is recommended to respect barrier gestures to avoid transmitting the disease to infants:
- Wash your hands very regularly when taking care of your baby, and regularly wash your toys and stuffed animals
- Avoid as much as possible taking your child to confined public places where he might come into contact with people with colds
- Wear a mask at the slightest symptom of a cold or cough.
