The suspected culprit in the Midwest, where nearly 500 children were treated at one hospital alone in Kansas City, Mo., is called enterovirus 68, an uncommon strain of a very common family of viruses that typically hit from summertime through the fall.
  A motion from El Dorado also alleges that the city should be named as a responsible third party because it failed to protect its citizens by allowing through its zoning authority schools and a nursing home to operate in a close proximity to the plant.

  The virus typically causes illness lasting about a week and most children recover with no lasting problems.
