Rapid Detection of Powassan Virus in a Patient With Encephalitis by Metagenomic Sequencing

7 Sept 2017

Abstract excerpt

We describe a patient with severe and progressive encephalitis of unknown etiology. We performed rapid metagenomic sequencing from cerebrospinal fluid and identified Powassan virus, an emerging tick-borne flavivirus that has been increasingly detected in the United States.
