Health CornerHospitals in Missouri and Illinois are seeing

more children than usual with severe

respiratory illness caused by enterovirus

D68. Several other states are investigatingclusters of children with severe respiratory

illness, possibly due to enterovirus D68.

EV-D68 causes respiratory illness, and the

virus can be found in respiratory

secretions such as saliva, nasal mucus, or

sputum. The virus likely spreads from

person to person when an infected person

coughs, sneezes, or touches contaminated

surfaces. For more info, visit
