Abstract
RSV replication appears to continue in humans far longer than previously thought. The rise in nasal RSV-specific IgA shortly after infection likely neutralizes culture detectable virus producing misleadingly short durations of infection. Prolonged viral replication helps explain RSV's extended disease manifestations and increases the potential utility of antivirals.
