Brief summary
The primary objectives of the study are: To estimate the effectiveness of nirsevimab against polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-confirmed RSV (1) lower respiratory tract (LRTD) and (2) related medical encounters. the secondary objectives are: 1. To estimate the effectiveness of nirsevimab against medical encounters with a respiratory related diagnosis. 2. To estimate the effectiveness of nirsevimab against medical encounters with an LRTD diagnosis. 3. To estimate the impact of nirsevimab on PCR-confirmed RSV. 4. To estimate the impact of nirsevimab on medical encounters with an otitis media diagnosis. 5. To estimate the impact of nirsevimab on antibiotic prescription.
