How to treat respiratory disease caused by HMPV virus?
Increased hydration, fever control, and seeking medical attention if needed are ways to treat respiratory illness caused by the HMPV virus.
China, India and Kazakhstan have now recorded many cases of human metapneumovirus (HMPV) infection causing respiratory disease.
HMPV was first identified in 2001 as a respiratory infection that causes flu-like symptoms.
The virus can affect people of all ages; children under 5 years old, older adults and people with weakened immune systems are at higher risk.
