An outbreak of aseptic meningitis in a nursery school caused by echovirus type 30 in Kobe, Japan.
Human enteroviruses infect a large number of people every year. The great majority of infections are asymptomatic or cause only mild respiratory illness (common cold). However, these viruses may cause various clinically distinct diseases including aseptic meningitis (1). In the summer of 2006, there was an outbreak of aseptic meningitis in a nursery school in Kobe City, Japan. The school is sit...

متن کاملMolecular Analysis of Echovirus 13 Isolates and Aseptic Meningitis, Spain
Echovirus 13 (EV13), considered rare, was reported worldwide in 2000, mostly related to aseptic meningitis outbreaks. In Spain, 135 EV13 isolates were identified. The genetic relationships between 64 representative strains from Spain and other reported isolates from the United States, Germany, Italy, Japan, and Sweden were described by analyzing the partial sequence of the major capsid protein ...
