Together Against RSV Data Portal

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause of acute Lower Respiratory Tract Infections in young children and infants. RSV affects approximately 90% of infants by the age of two.1,2

In the UK, it is estimated that RSV accounts for over 30,000 infants being hospitalised every year.3

Between 2024/25, RSV-related hospitalisations in infants and children under the age of five in England cost the NHS approximately £87.2 million.3 The vast majority of this cost was in infants under the age of 1 (£80.4 million).3

Last year in England, there were approximately 54,460 RSV-related admissions of infants under the age of 1.3

Using NHS Hospital Episode Statistics, data on hospital admissions has been broken down to show the impact infant RSV has on the NHS in your local area in England.
