Abstract: immunodeficiencies.Improved viral phenotyping in Indian hospitals could guide smarter use of limited resources, identify children most likely to deteriorate, and eventually inform prioritization once RSV and HMPV vaccines or monoclonals become more widely available.The broader message is that both RSV and HMPV deserve attention within the child health agenda.RSV prevention is finally within reach, with vaccines and long-acting antibodies on the horizon.HMPV remains without a preventive option, but studies like this highlight where the burden lies and which groups merit closer monitoring.In LMICs, where hospital capacity is stretched and diagnostics are often limited, understanding these subtle differences can help clinicians anticipate which infants will need the most aggressive supportive care.
