Acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI) occupy a special place in pediatric practice. This is due to several factors including high incidence, increased morbidity, frequently severe course and risk of complications especially in children with premorbidities, as well as a significant economic and social burden [1]. It should be specifically noted that ARVI in children is the main reason for seeking medical care on an outpatient basis, accounting for more than 90% of all doctor visits during the epidemic outbreak of the disease [2].
