We observed concurrent lower frequencies of respiratory syncytial virus (A and B) detection, admission to hospital for bronchiolitis, and emergency department attendance for acute respiratory illnesses (appendix p 1) in 2020 compared with preceding years. The small uptick in emergency department attendances and bronchiolitis admissions in June, 2020 (appendix p 1) was not associated with increased respiratory syncytial virus detections. ./cache/cord-267274-3ygl3stc.txt ./txt/cord-267274-3ygl3stc.txt
