Figure 2

Reverse cumulative distribution curves of neutralizing antibody titers against enterovirus D68 isolates, by isolate and age group, Kansas City, Missouri, USA, 2012–2013. A) Fermon; B) dominant 2014 isolate 14-18949; C) less frequently circulating 2014 isolate 14-18952; D) rare 2014 isolate 14-18953. The reverse cumulative distribution pattern for 14-18949 varied the least by age group.
