Introduction
At the end of last July, the Ministry of Health published the Vaccine Report and Vaccination Registry document (approved by the Public Health Commission on July 12, 2023) entitled Recommendations for the use of nirsevimab against respiratory syncytial virus for the 2023-2024 seasonand of which its most relevant aspects were summarized on this website.
Later, on this same website, the practical and operational aspects of the implementation of the VRS prevention program this coming autumn have been explained in more detail.
Now, in this note, a 2-page summary is presented in PDF format with the aim of facilitating the monitoring and application of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection prevention programs for professionals, in the context of the usual variability between the Spanish autonomous communities and cities (CC.
