What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Respiratory infections are very common, especially during winter, and are often caused by viruses such as influenza, SARS-CoV-2 or respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). These illnesses are generally mild, but their symptoms do not always allow a clear distinction to be made between a viral infection and a bacterial infection.
