During an ongoing survey of human rotavirus serotypes, we demonstrated for the first time the circulation of serotype G6 in two regions of Hungary. Of five rotavirus seasons surveyed to date (1994-9), serotype G6 was found in all seasons except 1994-5 at an overall prevalence of 1.4% (17 of 1252) and ranging from 0.6 to 4.5%. Children infected with G6 strains were older (mean age, 3.3 years) than children infected with the four (G1-G4) globally common serotypes (mean age, 2.1 years; unpaired Student's t test, P<0.001). Our data indicate that rotavirus serotype G6 may be an epidemiologically important G serotype in Hungary.
在一项正在进行的人类轮状病毒血清型调查中，我们首次证实血清型G6在匈牙利的两个地区传播。在迄今调查的五个轮状病毒流行季节（1994 - 1999年）中，除了1994 - 1995年外，在所有季节均发现了血清型G6，总体流行率为1.4%（1252例中有17例），范围在0.6%至4.5%之间。感染G6毒株的儿童（平均年龄3.3岁）比感染全球常见的四种（G1 - G4）血清型的儿童（平均年龄2.1岁；非配对学生t检验，P<0.001）年龄更大。我们的数据表明，轮状病毒血清型G6在匈牙利可能是一种具有重要流行病学意义的G血清型。
