Delayed effects of acute respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection: possible mechanisms. The link between RSV infection and delayed respiratory problems may be explained by a severe initial infection, which either alters the host lungs or immunity, leading to future wheeze, or reveals an underlying tendency to wheeze.
