This paragraph does not appear to have anything to do with the story about a man getting rescued from a crevasse near the beach in San Diego. I went to the SD Union-Tribune, which is where this story originated, and the preceding paragraph has some of the same wording, but following paragraphs are different. This is from the Extra section, which is not the TCH's responsibility and probably goes with all McClatchy digital editions. https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/public-safety/story/2023-12-22/rescue-effort-continues-on-man-who-spent-night-trapped-in-sunset-cliffs-crevasse Here's the same story from the Tacoma News Tribune, which is the same as the TCH story: https://www.thenewstribune.com/news/nation-world/national/article283449073.html

Well, I haven't posted in a while, but I see I have nearly 30 followers, so maybe I'll start up again. With two postings today. This one is somewhat excusable because it's a difficult word. And who knows what RSV stands for anyway. The correct spelling is syncytial. Once you pay attention to it, it's not hard to remember. sync y tial. Sync as in in-sync, then y then tial. Ok, maybe not that easy, either?!?
