Parechovirus-A3 (PeV-A3), first reported in 2004 in Japan, is an emerging pathogen that causes sepsis and meningoencephalitis in neonates and young infants. Although PeV-A3 has been identified worldwide, its epidemiological characteristics differ by region. To investigate the molecular evolution and epidemiology of PeV-A3, we performed genetic analyses of 131 PeV-A3 strains from the years 1997-2019 in Niigata, Japan. During 2016-2019, annual numbers remained steady, in contrast to the PeV-A3 epidemic interval of every 2-3 years that w
