Among children aged ≤ 6 months included in the ENVIE study, the ENVIE\_ancillaire study will be offered to cases of RSV infection or to controls. The study involves a nasopharyngeal swab using a FLOQ-SWAB™ swab and a fingertip sample (dextro type). These samples will be collected specifically for the purpose of studying immunity. A blood sample may also be requested for children weighing ≥5 kg who are included in the ENVIE\_ancillaire study. The purpose of this sample collection will be to conduct an advanced immunological study
Among children aged ≤ 6 months included in the ENVIE study, the ENVIE\_ancillaire study will be offered to cases of RSV infection or to controls. The study involves a nasopharyngeal swab using a FLOQ-SWAB™ swab and a fingertip sample (dextro type). This sample collection will be carried out specifically for the study of immunity. Innate immune mediators (type I, II and III IFNs) and key inflammatory molecules (IL-6, TNF-alpha, IL-10) will be quantified, and adaptive immunity will be analysed by measuring local immunoglobulin titres (IgG, A, M, subclasses and specific antibodies against the inactivated virus) from the nasopharyngeal swab and blood samples absorbed onto filter paper. A blood sample may also be offered to children weighing ≥5 kg who are included in the ENVIE\_ancillaire study. The purpose of this sample collection will be to conduct an advanced immunological study (identification of the host's protein, cellular and transcriptomic response). Finally, the bacterial microbiome (16S RNA) and the soluble virome will be characterised by high-throughput sequencing.

Once those with parental authority have confirmed their willingness for their child to take part in the research and written consent has been obtained, the following samples may be collected: * A nasopharyngeal swab * A 'dextro' blood sample with a blot on filter paper. The nasopharyngeal samples and blotting papers will be stored at -20°C (or -80°C if possible) and transported to the Pasteur Institute as soon as possible (just-in-time). il sera possible de proposer un prélèvement supplémentaire dans le cadre d'une étude immunologique avancée, chez les nourrissons ≥ 5 kg. Ce prélèvement comprend : * Un tube hépariné pour plasmatèque et cellulotèque : 5 mL * Un tube PAX gene pediatrique pour RNAtèque : 0,5 mL
