Enterovirus genomic load and disease severity among children hospitalised with hand, foot and mouth disease

Enterovirus genomic load and disease severity among children hospitalised with hand, foot and mouth disease

Background: Examining associations between viral genomic loads of enteroviruses and clinical severity is important for promoting and improving development of antiviral drugs related to hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD). Methods: Throat swabs were collected from HFMD cases at acute phase of illness...
