Yonkers has confirmed a case of enterovirus D68, the unusual strain that has sickened hundreds of people nationwide this year and been linked to several deaths, including one in New Jersey, authorities say.<\/p>\n
A student at Cedar Place Elementary School was diagnosed with EV-D68 over the weekend, according to a spokeswoman for Mayor Mike Spano’s office.<\/p>\n
The student is being kept at home while she recovers, and her parents have met with the school, the spokeswoman said. The school was cleaned Monday morning as a precaution.<\/p>\n
The student is doing well and recovering, officials said. No other information was immediately available.<\/p>\n
