Why the study?

An upsurge in echovirus 30 (E30) infections was reported in Europe in 2018.

Structured PICO

Population

1,329 echovirus 30 (E30) strains collected from patients in 22 countries in Europe during 2016-2018. Most cases affected persons 0-4 years of age (29%) and 25-34 years of age (27%).

Outcome

Genetic clades and recombinant forms of E30 strains

The 2018 upsurge in echovirus 30 infections in Europe was driven by the emergence and rapid turnover of two distinct genetic clades (G1 and G6) and their recombinant forms.

Discussion

No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.

Implication

Monitoring E30 clades in Europe is warranted; leaves open drivers of age-specific outbreaks and clade dominance.
