A 16-year-old is the first person infected with the RSV virus in our country.

Euronews Albania journalist, Sara Demushi, reported that the minor had some symptoms such as a high fever, a cough, as well as body aches.

The confirmation came after conducting several tests by the Institute of Public Health since after performing the tampon, it was negative.

Currently, the 16-year-old is in good health, as he left the hospital a few days ago.

“There was a 16-year-old who was infected with the RSV virus. For days, pediatricians have been calling for caution, and have even stated that the virus may be present in our country since neighboring countries have had the presence of this virus. The director of the Infectious Disease Hospital, Najada Como, has confirmed the presence of this virus. It is about a 16-year-old boy, whose initial symptoms were high fever, cough, and body aches.

After the analyses were done by the PIH, it became possible to confirm this new variant in our country. The 16-year-old had heart, brain, and lung problems. Due to the problems he had, he was intubated on the first day. Currently, his health condition is good and he left the hospital a few days ago”, she emphasized.
