Abstract
Coordination of case reporting by the European Non-Polio Enterovirus Network (ENPEN) found evidence for increasing numbers of enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) infections in Europe in September 2021. This prompted the consortium to send an alert email to member laboratories, requesting an urgent EV-D68 investigation. Here, we report the virological and clinical characteristics of 139 EV-D68 cases identified in eight European countries between 31 July and 14 October 2021.
