Abstract

Geographic and climate parameters influence the epidemiology of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). In Tunisia, information about the impact of environment factors on RSV infection is not well established. The objective is to predict the onset of RSV season based on meteorological parameters by investigating the association between RSV bronchiolitis and climate factors.
