Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common respiratory virus that causes cold-like symptoms. RSV can lead to pneumonia and worsen underlying conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and heart failure.
While RSV tends to be mild for healthy adults and children older than 6 months, older adults are more likely to develop severe illness and require hospitalization. Every year in the United States, an estimated 100,000-150,000 adults age 60 and older are hospitalized for RSV.
The annual economic burden of RSV among adults age 60 and older in the United States is estimated at $6.6 billion in 2022 dollars.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends the RSV vaccine for all adults age 75 and older, as well as for adults ages 60-74 with elevated risk factors for severe RSV. Conditions that increase the risk of severe RSV include:
- Cardiovascular diseases, such as heart failure, coronary artery disease and congenital heart disease.
- Chronic lung and respiratory diseases, such as COPD, emphysema and asthma.
- End-stage renal disease.
- Chronic liver disease.

America’s Health Rankings builds on the work of the United Health Foundation to draw attention to public health and better understand the health of various populations. Our platform provides relevant information that policymakers, public health officials, advocates and leaders can use to effect change in their communities.
We have developed detailed analyses on the health of key populations in the country, including women and children, seniors and those who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces, in addition to a deep dive into health disparities across the country.
