EV-D68 surveillance in AFP warrants vigilance; extends Taiwan molecular data but leaves causality open.
In respond to acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) in association with Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) infection, Taiwan Centers for Disease Control began to screen EV-D68 infection among each AFP patient since July 2015 and detected the first case in August 2016. This article updated the molecular epidemiology trends of EV-D68 from the national surveillance data.
