Re: Who is seeing what?

I'll second Wayne - feeling sorry that Rotashield was removed.

We've had more inpatient RSV this week than I can remember in the last few years combined.  Oddly, none have been severe enough to warrant transfer to ICU - or even come close as in past years.  Thanks to Synagis?

Influenza A seems to be a little more prevalent here in NW Oklahoma but has slowed some.
