Abstract:
Globally, acute lower respiratory infection (ALRI) is responsible for frequent hospitalization of children under -5 years caused by RSV. There is a documented evidence of climatic and non-climatic factors contributing to the risk of ALRI. However, in the Kule refugee camp in Gambella, West Ethiopia, we do not know which factors influence the infection's seasonal pattern.
