Overview

Natural History

  • The symptoms of enterovirus 68 infection usually develop in the first decade of life and it is more common among children aged 6 months to 18 years. [1]
  • The infection starts with symptoms such as cough, fever, difficulty breathing, and wheezing.[2][3][4]
  • The disease can progress to severe respiratory distress and patients may require oxygen supplementation and hospital admission. Patients usually stay from 1 to 6 days in the hospital.[1] [4]
  • The symptoms typically develop 1 week after exposure to an ill contact.[1]
