Abstract excerpt
Historically, enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) has primarily been associated with respiratory illnesses. However, in the summers of 2014 and 2016 EV-D68 outbreaks coincided with a spike in polio-like acute flaccid myelitis/paralysis (AFM/AFP) cases. This raised concerns that the EV-D68 virus could be the causative agent of AFM during these recent outbreaks. To assess the neurotropic capacity of EV-D68, we explored the use...
