Enterovirus D68 Subclade B3 in Children with Acute Flaccid Paralysis in West Africa, 2016

5 Aug 2020

Abstract excerpt

We tested for enterovirus D68 in fecal samples collected during June-September 2016 from 567 patients with acute flaccid paralysis in 7 West Africa nations. Children <5 years old comprised 64.3% of enterovirus D68 positive patients. Our findings emphasize the need for active surveillance for acute flaccid myelitis.
