Via Data is Plural: “The US CDC’s Respiratory Syncytial Virus Hospitalization Surveillance Network collects data on hospital admissions due to lab-confirmed RSV at acute-care facilities in 58 counties, across 12 states. The CDC uses the data to estimate weekly hospitalization rates — overall as well as by age group, race/ethnicity, and sex. Those rates, which go back to 2016–17 for adults and 2018–19 for minors, are available via an interactive dashboard and downloadable dataset.
