CDC investigating 286 reports of polio-like condition


(Worthy News) – The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is investigating 286 possible cases of a polio-like condition called acute flaccid myelitis, including 116 confirmed ones in 31 states, the agency said Monday.

The number of confirmed cases increased by 10 from last week, as the total eclipsed the 33 confirmed cases in 16 states last year. Two years ago there were 149 cases in 39 states and the District of Columbia, according to the CDC.

Despite the outbreak, “less than one to two in a million children in the United States will get AFM every year,” the CDC said. [ Source: UPI (Read More…) ]
