A. Proportion of RSV tests conducted on each age group in the pre-pandemic (gray) vs. post-emergence (magenta) phase. B. Age, in years, of patients tested for and diagnosed with RSV in the pre-pandemic and post-emergence phases. Because tests in the post-emergence phase were conducted on older patients, on average, than in the pre-pandemic phase, the post-emergence testing data was bootstrapped according to the age distribution of the pre-pandemic testing data. The resulting patient age distribution is reported as “Post-Emergence (Test Adjusted).” Boxplots display the first, second, and third quartiles, with whiskers extending to the minimum of 1.5 times the interquartile range and the most extreme data point in either direction. ***, p < 0.001 via Wilcoxon rank sum test.
