Risk Factors for Respiratory Failure Associated with Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection in Adults
The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 09/17/09

Nasal viral load was higher in ventilated vs nonventilated hospitalized patients, and high viral load was independently associated with respiratory failure.
