#hmpv #china Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) cases are rising among children in China, as reported by Chinese state media. The virus, which belongs to the same family as RSV, can cause severe respiratory infections, including bronchitis and pneumonia. Vulnerable groups include young children, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems. Discovered in 2001, HMPV is now among the top four viral infections in hospitals in China. Experts emphasize the importance of understanding the cause of the surge, whether due to changes in virus behavior or increased exposure. While no vaccine or antiviral treatment is available, preventive measures like regular handwashing, avoiding contact with sick individuals, and staying home when unwell can reduce the risk.
