A) Phylogenetic analysis of human parechovirus type 3 strains collected during 2016–2018 from patients hospitalized in Freiburg, Germany, along with strains from 4 geographic regions in Germany based on the viral protein 1 region (678 nt) of the polyprotein gene (n = 74). B) Phylogenetic analysis of Yamagata/2011 parechovirus lineage. Color code depicts wards in the 2 Freiburg hospitals: green, A3; red, B1; pink, B3; purple, B4. Cases in twins are marked with open circles. Scale bars indicate n
