Circulation of HRSV in Belgium: from multiple genotype circulation to prolonged circulation of predominant genotypes.

Molecular surveillance of HRSV in Belgium for 15 consecutive seasons (1996-2011) revealed a shift from a regular 3-yearly cyclic pattern, into a yearly alternating periodicity where HRSV-B is replaced by HRSV-A.
