About This Respiratory Infections in Old Age Study in Rochester

The prevention of infectious diseases in older adults remains a major public health challenge, as acute respiratory infections are a leading cause of hospitalisation, mortality, and functional decline worldwide. Immunosenescence and environmental exposures increase susceptibility to infection and reduce vaccine effectiveness in this population. Respiratory viruses, including influenza, SARS-CoV-2, respiratory syncytial virus, and human metapneumovirus, account for a substantial share of this burden, much of which is vaccine-preventable. However, their impact on functional decline and recovery in older adults remains insufficiently characterized. This international study aims to assess the effect of hospitalization for major respiratory viral infections on loss of autonomy in individuals aged 60 years and older, to inform targeted prevention and vaccination strategies.
