Studies from 2014 to 2017 indicated a poor outcome for many cases. Seven of 61 cases with EVD68 detected and eight long‐term follow‐ups had full recovery; two deaths were described in severely immunocompromised people (one with EVD68 and one with both EVD68 and coxsackie A16 detected). Six of 10 children in Denver were sent home for outpatient treatment. Some of the children with mild and moderate cases have recovered partially from temporary limb weakness but still have permanent weakness, whereas those with more severe cases have not recovered as much. Intensive physical therapy and occupational therapy may be beneficial for recovery.
