Influenza and other respiratory viruses are rising in parts of the southeast and central parts of the United States.
Tests for Covid so far have been negative, the station reported. Several students, however, have tested positive for the flu.
Esper said that cases of RSV are usually seen in December and January, but for the past two years, the typical RSV season has come earlier, during summer and early autumn. Rhinoviruses and enteroviruses are also circulating earlier than usual. This is because measures to curb Covid spread didn't allow other viruses to spread as they historically have.
There is no vaccine for RSV, however there is one for influenza. So far this year, Walensky said,"about 12 million flu vaccines have been given in pharmacies and in physician's offices."
