AU - Wang, David T1 - Astrovirus MLB2 Viremia in Febrile Child T2 - Emerging Infectious Disease journal PY - 2011 VL - 17 IS - 11 SP - 2050 SN - 1080-6059 AB - Astroviruses cause diarrhea, but it is not known whether they circulate in human plasma. Astrovirus MLB2 was recently discovered in diarrhea samples from children. We detected MLB2 in the plasma of a febrile child, which suggests that MLB2 has broader tropism than expected and disease potential beyond the gastrointestinal tract.
