Brief Summary: Respiratory viral infections RVIs represent a major public health problem and a great burden in terms of morbidity and mortality in children and adults worldwide To ascertain the source of an infection microbiology laboratories routinely perform a crucial step the search for the pathogen through Polymerase Chain Reaction PCR Due to the extensive variety of pathogens testing for the existence of all potential viruses bacteria or fungi accountable for the infection is an impractical and time-intensive endeavor Furthermore the rise of novel pathogens exemplified by those accountable for the recent SARS-CoV-2 pandemic underscores the urgency of promptly developing new innovative diagnostic tests

To address these needs researchers have dedicated several years to developing indirect methodologies notably centered around utilizing markers derived from the hosts immune system Among these one particularly promising approach focuses on measuring the expression of interferon-stimulated genes which are uniquely triggered by viral infections thereby facilitating viral diagnosis This methodologys efficacy has been proven in the context of SARS-CoV-2 infections

This studys objective is to assess the functionality of such a tool across a spectrum of Respiratory Viral Infections RVIs prevalent within a French population during the winter season
