Human Usutu Virus Infection with Atypical Neurologic Presentation, Montpellier, France, 2016.

ABSTRACT: Infection with Usutu virus (USUV) has been recently associated with neurologic disorders, such as encephalitis or meningoencephalitis, in humans. These findings indicate that USUV is a potential health threat. We report an acute human infection with USUV in France putatively associated with a clinical diagnosis of idiopathic facial paralysis.
