Key result
Severe hand, foot, and mouth disease strain in China maps to Coxsackievirus A6 subgenotype D3a.
The study provides the genome sequence of a CVA6 strain from a severe HFMD case in China, classifying it as subgenotype D3a.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Adds CVA6 D3a sequence to surveillance databases; leaves open links to HFMD severity.
In the present study, we describe the genome sequence of coxsackievirus A6 (CVA6) strain 17ES4/QD/CHN/2017, which was isolated in Qingdao, China, in 2017. According to the phylogenetic analyses, the isolate belongs to subgenotype D3a.

Su et al. (2020) studied Severe hand, foot, and mouth disease (n=1). Coxsackievirus A6 strain 17ES4/QD/CHN/2017 was evaluated on Phylogenetic subgenotype classification. Coxsackievirus A6 strain 17ES4/QD/CHN/2017 isolated from a severe hand, foot, and mouth disease case in Qingdao, China in 2017 was identified as belonging to subgenotype D3a.
