| Abstract (English): |
The article focuses on the effectiveness and impact of Nirsevimab in Chile during the first season of a national immunization strategy against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). The research, which analyzed data from 154,173 infants, shows that vaccination with Nirsevimab significantly reduced hospitalizations due to RSV-related respiratory infections and severe cases that required intensive care. This success in the vaccination campaign, supported by the Ministry of Health and other institutions, could serve as a model for other countries to implement similar RSV prevention initiatives.

El artículo se centra en la efectividad e impacto de Nirsevimab en Chile durante la primera temporada de una estrategia nacional de inmunización contra el virus respiratorio sincitial (VRS). La investigación, que analizó datos de 154,173 lactantes, muestra que la vacunación con Nirsevimab redujo significativamente las hospitalizaciones por infecciones respiratorias relacionadas con el VRS y los casos graves que requirieron cuidados intensivos. Este éxito en la campaña de vacunación, apoyada por el Ministerio de Salud y otras instituciones, podría servir de modelo para que otros países implementen iniciativas similares de prevención del VRS.
