Molecular studies showed that the outbreak was caused by dengue virus type 2. Phylogenetic analysis of the envelope gene identified 2 clades of the virus. No case of hemorrhagic fever was recorded. | Source Title: | Emerging Infectious Diseases | URI: | https://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/180995 | ISSN: | 1080-6040 | DOI: | 10.3201/eid1604.091582 | Rights: | Attribution 4.0 International |
