Abstract
Sequencing studies of the glycoprotein G gene were performed in human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) strains detected by reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction directly from nasopharyngeal aspirates of hospitalized children 30% supplemental oxygen, admission to an intensive-care unit, and duration of hospital stay of >5 days. Group A and genotype GA2 strains were associated with greater severity of hRSV disease than were group B strains.
