3. Symptoms In Infants

Unlike adults and older children, if an infant gets RSV, it's more likely to be severe. The most common sign is struggling to breathe. Other symptoms include rapid breathing, coughing, lack of appetite during feeding, and irritability.

It’s also important to watch for dehydration, which has symptoms such as a lack of tears when crying, little or no urine, and cool, dry skin.
