Njouom R, et al. Detection of Influenza C Virus Infection among Hospitalized Patients, Cameroon. Emerg Infect Dis. 2019 Mar;25(3):607-609
We report 3 cases of influenza C virus in children hospitalized with severe acute respiratory infection in Cameroon. Two of these case-patients had grave clinical manifestations, but all 3 recovered. The lack of specific antiviral drugs for influenza C virus highlights the need to identify and describe cases involving this virus.
