The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is warning
against a mysterious new illness that’s appeared in children in 22 states this
year and is quickly spreading across the US. [Vox]
So far, the CDC has received 127 reports of suspected cases
of the disease, which is called acute flaccid myelitis. AFM is a polio-like
condition that affects the nervous system and may cause paralysis. [Twitter]
Ninety percent of the afflicted patients are under the age
of 18. The cause of AFM is still unknown, as patients have not tested positive
for polio, but doctors suspect it’s a virus. Though there’s no vaccine to treat
it so far, most children recover quickly. [ABC News]
AFM first grabbed attention in 2014 with 120 reported cases.
Yet the condition indicates an every-other-year pattern, with the number of
afflicted patients dropping every year and spiking the following one. [NBCNews]
The 2014 increase coincided with a national outbreak of a
severe respiratory illness caused by another non-polio virus, the enterovirus
D68. People are more likely to get infected by D68 during the fall. [CNN]
Minnesota, which previously saw only one case of AFM a year,
now has seven confirmed cases of the virus, according to state officials.

We are creating some weird superbugs that are going to kill
all of us (or let’s stay positive… almost all of us)!
