Abstract
Background: The monoclonal antibody Palivizumab (PVZ) has been used for 25 years to prevent Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) infections. Evidence regarding its performance in low and middle-income countries (LMIC) is scarce. In this uniquely conducted study in Brazil, we showed the real-life use of PVZ in a public health context
