Healthcare-associated viral respiratory infections at a Canadian tertiary pediatric hospital: a seven-year retrospective analysis.

ABSTRACT: Healthcare-associated viral respiratory infections (HA-VRIs) in a pediatric hospital decreased from 1.44 per 1000 patient days in 2019-0.43 and 0.38 in 2020-2021 during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic but increased to 1.35 in 2022. The increase in HA-VRIs in 2022 coincided with the rise in community circulation of these organisms.
