RSV Trend Question
Is RSV Getting Worse Right Now?
Not nationally. RSV looks fairly stable right now, not like a national acceleration, although several states still have clearly elevated RSV activity.
15-second answer
- National RSV activity is low and currently similar to 0.1 per 100K last week.
- That means the national RSV picture looks more stable than accelerating right now.
- The hottest current RSV states are Pennsylvania (0.5 per 100K), Alabama (0.3 per 100K), Alaska (0.3 per 100K), Florida (0.3 per 100K), Hawaii (0.2 per 100K).
- There are still 0 states in the high RSV bucket, so the local picture can still feel busy even if the national signal is flattening.
