10. Should Immunocompromised Individuals Be Worried About Roseola Infantum?
People with compromised immune systems are at greater risk of contracting just about any illness. Moreover, they’re at greater risk of developing complications. This is because they have less resistance to viruses in general and have a harder time fighting off infections.
Immunocompromised individuals who contract roseola may develop serious difficulties from the illness. Such complications may include pneumonia or encephalitis, which is a possibly life-threatening inflammation of the brain.
