Pediatric viral trends - Jan. 10
Below is hospital census information from Children’s Wisconsin to help our community better understand how respiratory illnesses are impacting kids locally. As the only health system in Wisconsin dedicated to the health of kids, Children’s Wisconsin has the largest pediatric intensive care unit in the state.
This week’s takeaway
“We are fortunate that fewer children are needing the care of our experts at Children’s Wisconsin due to viral illnesses. However, we are conscious of a possible rise in viral cases after holiday gatherings and as kids go back to school. For now, we continue to see steady or declining cases of hospitalizations due to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), COVID-19, rhinovirus and influenza.
Thank you to all of the primary care providers for your ongoing collaboration.”
