A. Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a common viral infection in young children that affects the respiratory system, causing symptoms like a runny nose, cough, wheezing, and difficulty breathing. For a 1 year 6-month-old baby with RSV, it's important to keep them well-hydrated by offering fluids regularly and ensuring they rest. Use a humidifier in the baby's room to help with breathing, and saline drops can help clear nasal congestion. Keep the baby in an upright position to make breathing easier. If the baby is having trouble breathing, has a high fever, or shows signs of dehydration or severe fatigue, seek immediate medical attention. RSV can sometimes lead to more serious conditions like bronchiolitis or pneumonia, so it's essential to monitor the baby's condition closely and follow the pediatrician's guidance.
