About The Study: Compared with maternal vaccination with the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) prefusion F protein (RSVpreF) vaccine, passive infant immunization with nirsevimab was associated with lower risks of RSV-related hospitalization and severe outcomes. These findings reflect the first RSV season with use of these immunization strategies in mainland France; their use should be reevaluated in future studies.
