A Chance for Healthy People to Volunteer in RSV Research
Participate in Respiratory Syncytial Virus Vaccine Clinical Trials in Michigan!
Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a common respiratory infection that can lead to serious complications, particularly in older adults and individuals with underlying health conditions. It can cause symptoms such as persistent cough, wheezing, and difficulty breathing, often making everyday activities more challenging.

About Respiratory Syncytial Virus Vaccine Trials in Southfield, Michigan
Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a common respiratory virus that can lead to serious complications, especially in older adults and individuals with weakened immune systems. Each year, RSV causes thousands of hospitalizations across the U.S., particularly during peak seasonal outbreaks.
As symptoms like persistent coughing, wheezing, or shortness of breath worsen, everyday activities such as walking, sleeping, or even talking can become difficult. The impact of RSV extends beyond physical symptoms. For older adults, RSV-related illness can disrupt routines, reduce independence, and contribute to prolonged recovery periods that affect overall well-being and quality of life.
Respiratory Syncytial Virus Vaccine Clinical Trials will be conducted in several locations across the United States, including Michigan. To ensure study eligibility, all participants must comply with study procedures.
*There is no cost to you, your private medical insurance, or the public health insurance plan for study procedures. The study-related procedures and visits will be provided at no charge throughout the duration of the study.

About Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) & Its Symptoms
Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a common and highly contagious virus that affects the lungs and breathing passages. While RSV can resemble a mild cold in healthy individuals, it can lead to severe illness in infants, older adults, and people with weakened immune systems.
RSV May Be Influenced By
Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is caused by a virus that infects the respiratory tract. It spreads easily from person to person through:
- Airborne Droplets: When an infected person coughs or sneezes, RSV particles can be inhaled by others nearby.
- Direct Contact: Touching someone who has the virus, like shaking hands or hugging, can transmit RSV, especially if you then touch your eyes, nose, or mouth.
- Contaminated Surfaces: RSV can survive on hard surfaces (like doorknobs, tables, and toys) for hours. If someone touches a contaminated surface and then touches their face, infection can occur.
- Close Contact in Crowded Places: Daycare centers, nursing homes, or hospitals are common settings where RSV spreads quickly.
- Weakened Immune Systems: Individuals with compromised immunity or chronic illnesses are more susceptible to RSV infection and complications.
While RSV is most common during the fall and winter, it can occur year-round and often causes seasonal outbreaks.
Common Symptoms of RSV Include
Symptoms can vary depending on age and overall health, but may include:
- Persistent coughing or wheezing
- Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath
- Fever and fatigue
- Nasal congestion or runny nose
- Decreased appetite and irritability in infants
In vulnerable populations, RSV can progress to serious conditions like bronchiolitis or pneumonia, often requiring hospitalization. Because early symptoms can mimic those of a common cold, RSV may go unrecognized until it becomes more severe.
