Figure 1: Observed changes in RSV outbreak dynamics in Japan.

Figure 1:

(A) Relative RSV cases across 47 prefectures in Japan between 2013 and 2024. Relative cases are calculated by dividing the raw cases by the pre-pandemic maximum. The red arrow indicates when the shift in seasonality occurred. (B) Estimates of center of gravity (i.e., the mean timing of an epidemic) across 46 prefectures, excluding Okinawa. (C) Estimates of the epidemic trough (i.e., the minimum number of cases in a season divided by the population size) across 47 prefectures. (D) Time series of RSV cases across 5 major islands.
