Abstract
An outbreak of Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease (HFMD) was reported in Navi Mumbai in July-October 2018. Of 15 HFMD cases, two had recurrences within a month while three had lesions extending to trunk. Coxsackie virus A6 and A16 were detected from 13 cases (CV-A6 from 10 cases and CV-A16 from 3 cases) indicating co-circulation of these viruses. The present study highlights an urgent need of HFMD surveillance.Entities:
