*Counts and percentages exclude cases with out-of-state or of unknown residence. Pairwise phylogenetic distances and estimated times of most recent common ancestors were calculated using Minnesota HRSV genomes only for lineages with >3 genomes. NA, not applicable; RSV, respiratory syncytial virus; RSV-NET, Respiratory Syncytial Virus Hospitalization Surveillance Network; Twin Cities Metro, Minneapolis-St Paul metropolitan area; WGS, whole-genome sequencing.
