Info icon

RSV is a serious and disruptive illness

Regardless of how you feel, how healthy you eat, or how active you are, the fact is: If you're aged 60 or older, you are at risk of getting RSV.

RSV symptoms can show up within 4 to 6 days after becoming infected and usually appear in stages. Symptoms can include:

  • Runny nose
  • Coughing
  • Sneezing
  • Fever
  • Wheezing
  • Decrease in appetite

There are some symptoms that are more serious and require immediate medical attention, including:

  • Difficulty breathing
  • High fever
  • Blue or gray lips or skin
  • Chest pain

If you're aged 60 or older, the risk of RSV infection causing severe symptoms can be even higher—making it that much more important to protect yourself and your loved ones.

RSV risk for older adults

RSV is not worth the risk. As you age, so does your immune system. A weakened immune system could mean having a harder time fighting off infections like RSV, especially if you're aged 60 or older. For some people, RSV infection can lead to more serious and potentially life-threatening illnesses. RSV can be especially risky for older adults with certain medical conditions, like:

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

(COPD)

Asthma

Congestive heart failure

(CHF)

Advanced liver or kidney disease

Diabetes

CDC Recommended

To protect against RSV, the CDC recommends vaccinating all adults who are:
  • Aged 60 or older with increased risk of severe RSV disease
  • Aged 75 years or older

What are the risks of mRESVIA?

There is a very small chance that mRESVIA could cause a severe allergic reaction. A severe allergic reaction would usually occur within a few minutes to one hour after getting a dose of mRESVIA. For this reason, your healthcare provider may ask you to stay for a short time at the place where you received your vaccine. Signs of a severe allergic reaction may include:

  • A fast heartbeat
  • A rash all over your body
  • Dizziness and weakness

Side effects that have been reported in clinical trials with mRESVIA include:

  • Injection-site reactions: pain, underarm swelling or tenderness in the same arm of the injection, swelling (hardness), and redness
  • Fatigue, headache, muscle pain, joint pain, chills, nausea or vomiting, fever and hives

These may not be all of the possible side effects of mRESVIA. Ask your healthcare provider about any side effects that concern you. You may report side effects to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) at 1-800-822-7967 or www.vaers.hhs.gov.
