severe respiratory illness in kids that we saw pop up N.W. Missouri a
little over a week ago (see Kansas City Outbreak Identified As HEV 68),
and then a few days later in St. Louis (see Missouri Health Alert On
Enterovirus 68), has now been reported in at least four more states.
.
This week we've seen media reports of hospitals being slammed with (mostly
young) patients with respiratory infections in Ohio, Illinois, Kansas,
Missouri, and most recently Colorado. While test results haven't come
back for all of these locations, local doctors are pointing their fingers
at the emerging EV 68 virus.
