How can I prevent enterovirus D68?

You can slow or stop the spread of EV-D68 infection by practicing good hygiene, including:

  • Sneeze or cough into the crook of the elbow.
  • Disinfect high-touch surfaces like toys, countertops and doorknobs.
  • Don’t share eating utensils, cups, towels or clothing.
  • Separate ill children from healthy family members and classmates, when possible.
  • Wash hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
