(Before It's News)


The CDC said Wednesday that enterovirus 68 has been confirmed in 16 states.

The Health Department said the results confirmed suspicions that enterovirus is circulating in Minnesota. Some hospitals have reported an increase in children being brought in for respiratory problems.

It can cause mild to severe illness, and may even require breathing help for patients with the worst cases. But no deaths have been reported.

“The New Jersey Department of Health is closely monitoring for increases in respiratory illness in hospitals around the state,” Health Commissioner Mary E. O'Dowd said in the statement.
