Central Oregon Has Seen Its First Cases of Enterovirus

Over the last week, St. Charles Bend has treated at least two children with enterovirus.

 

They've done testing to confirm the virus, but it could take a week or longer to get the results.

 

St. Charles is asking the community to be aware of the symptoms.  They inlcude fever, runny nose, sneezing cough, body and muscle aches, rash and conjunctivitis.

 

Most people don't require treatment and recover completely, but some with asthma or other conditions often have to be hospitalized.
