Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is spreading in China, particularly among children, but health experts assert it poses no threat comparable to the COVID-19 pandemic.
HMPV is not a new virus; it has been understood for decades. Consequently, we know its transmission methods and treatment options, making it manageable.
While HMPV can lead to serious respiratory issues, symptoms usually resemble those of a common cold and typically resolve within three to six days.
Infections of HMPV often occur in colder seasons, and nearly all children have been infected by the age of five, which typically reduces severity in future infections.
