Abstract

This is a case report of a child with severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) pneumonia and concurrent infection with Epstein-Barr virus. We hypothesize that immunosuppression due to EBV may have contributed to the severity of his RSV infection. The diagnosis of RSV infection was facilitated by bronchoalveolar lavage.
