Our study aimed to compare children under 5 years hospitalized with respiratory syncytial virus in prepandemic and late-pandemic periods. We included 209 children at the Dijon University Hospital (France). We observed a nearly 3-fold increase in the number of cases in the late period, with older children, but less frequently requiring intensive care. These observations could help prepare a new pandemic.
