Health Experts Warn of ‘Triple Whammy’ Amid RSV Epidemic

Worried parents are taking to social media to warn other parents about the RSV epidemic sweeping the nation. Over the last month, cases doubled in 26 states and it’s putting a big strain on hospitals. Seventy-five percent of pediatric beds in the U.S. are filled with RSV patients. At Connecticut Children's Hospital, they've called in the National Guard to help. Doctors are now warning everyone to brace themselves for a triple whammy this winter, which is a combination of RSV, the flu and COVID-19.
