Just quickly sharing this, please check out the references below for more information.

"Human metapneumovirus is a respiratory virus that causes flu or cold-like symptoms."[1]

These symptoms typically appear within three to six days after being infected, and often include:

Treatment

According to [1] there is no direct vaccine at present, and treatment is about management, nevertheless I have put a link to biorxiv [2] as study on HMPV is moving forward there may be research that points to better treatment as we learn more.

We NEED to follow the science.
