Phylogenetic analysis identified two groups (A and B, amino acid identity 93%-96%) and four subgroups. Although group A strains predominated, accounting for 69% of all strains, as many B as A strains were found in persons ≥3years of age. | Source Title: | Emerging Infectious Diseases | URI: | https://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/181115 | ISSN: | 10806040 | DOI: | 10.3201/eid1006.031097 | Rights: | Attribution 4.0 International |
