Respiratory syncytial virus and Streptococcus pneumoniae Co-infection in an elderly individual within a familial cluster
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common pathogen that causes respiratory tract infection and has been found to co-infect with other bacteria. Although the virus can cause morbidity and mortality in the elderly, RSV-bacteria co-infection had rarely been reported. In this paper, we reported the case of an elderly woman with RSV and Streptococcus pneumoniae co-infection in a familial cluster during the COVID-19 pandemic era. The patient was treated appropriately and showed complete recovery.
