Human Parvovirus 4 in Nasal and Fecal Specimens from Children, Ghana

Nonparenteral transmission might contribute to human parvovirus 4 (PARV4) infections in sub-Saharan Africa. PARV4 DNA was detected in 8 (0.83%) of 961 nasal samples and 5 (0.53%) of 943 fecal samples from 1,904 children in Ghana. Virus concentrations ≤6–7 log(10) copies/mL suggest respiratory or fec...
