Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of cohort isolation of RS(respiratory syncytial virus)-positive bronchiolitis versus RS-negative bronchiolitis on prevention of co-infection and clinical disease severity. Furthermore the investigators want to elucidate general epidemiological data on bronchiolitis concerning viral causes and the associated clinical severity. The investigators want to conduct a prospective cohort study, comparing incidence of co-infection and clinical severity, in two cohort: one with isolation of RS positive bronchiolitis as a separate cohort within bronchiolitis and one without isolation (all children with RS-negative bronchiolitis are nursed together independent of viral agent)
