COVID-19 Has Quashed Nearly All Other Viruses

“We haven’t had any specimen positive for [enterovirus] D68 … at our
site in Colorado since July, and my colleagues around the country also
saw very little,” said Kevin Messacar, a pediatric infectious-disease
physician at Children’s Hospital Colorado [and associate professor of
pediatrics at CU School of Medicine]. “We also have not seen
significant influenza or RSV on our wards in Colorado. All the most
common childhood infections that land children in the hospital —
influenza, croup, bronchiolitis — we are not seeing.”
