Group 2 Vaccinia Virus, Brazil
نویسندگان
چکیده
In 2011, vaccinia virus caused an outbreak of bovine vaccinia, affecting dairy cattle and dairy workers in Brazil. Genetic and phenotypic analyses identified this isolate as distinct from others recently identified, thereby reinforcing the hypothesis that different vaccinia virus strains co-circulate in Brazil.

Reemergence of Vaccinia Virus during Zoonotic Outbreak, Pará State, Brazil
In 2010, vaccinia virus caused an outbreak of bovine vaccinia that affected dairy cattle and rural workers in Pará State, Brazil. Genetic analyses identified the virus as distinct from BeAn58058 vaccinia virus (identified in 1960s) and from smallpox vaccine virus strains. These findings suggest spread of autochthonous group 1 vaccinia virus in this region.
متن کاملOcular Vaccinia Infection in Dairy Worker, Brazil
We studied a clinical case of vaccinia virus that caused an ocular manifestation in a dairy worker in Brazil. Biologic and molecular analyses identified a co-infection with 2 isolates from different Brazilian vaccinia virus phylogenetic groups.
متن کاملPassatempo Virus, a Vaccinia Virus Strain, Brazil
Passatempo virus was isolated during a zoonotic outbreak. Biologic features and molecular characterization of hemagglutinin, thymidine kinase, and vaccinia growth factor genes suggested a vaccinia virus infection, which strengthens the idea of the reemergence and circulation of vaccinia virus in Brazil. Molecular polymorphisms indicated that Passatempo virus is a different isolate.
متن کاملOutbreak of Severe Zoonotic Vaccinia Virus Infection, Southeastern Brazil
In 2010, a vaccinia virus isolate caused an atypically severe outbreak that affected humans and cattle in Brazil. Of 26 rural workers affected, 12 were hospitalized. Our data raise questions about the risk factors related to the increasing number and severity of vaccinia virus infections.
متن کاملCharacterization of a vaccinia-like virus isolated in a Brazilian forest.
The SPAn232 virus (SPAnv) was isolated from sentinel mice in the forest of Cotia, São Paulo, Brazil. It was grouped originally as a Cotia virus (CV) sample due to serological cross-reaction with the latter. However, SPAnv presented genetic characteristics that differed from CV and indicated that SPAnv is a member of the vaccinia virus (VV) subgroup. SPAnv showed a HindIII-digested DNA pattern s...
