Winter is here, and while many of us are feeling the cold, it’s often our little ones who are most
vulnerable. Alongside flu season, doctors are warning parents to be on high alert for Respiratory Syncytial
Virus a common respiratory virus that can quickly become serious in babies, especially those under six
months, with symptoms like fast breathing, wheezing, unusual sleepiness, and difficulty feeding. This
morning, we’re joined by Dr Mbali Gumede to help us understand how to recognise the warning signs early,
how to protect your baby this winter, and when it’s time to seek urgent medical care.
