We describe the spread of a dengue virus during an outbreak in Saint Martin island (French West Indies) during winter 2003-2004. Dengue type 3 viruses were isolated from 6 patients exhibiting clinical symptoms. This serotype had not been detected on the island during the preceding 3 years. Genome sequence determinations and analyses showed a common origin with dengue type 3 viruses isolated in Martinique 2 years earlier.
我们描述了2003 - 2004年冬季在圣马丁岛(法属西印度群岛)登革热病毒爆发期间的传播情况。从6名出现临床症状的患者中分离出了登革热3型病毒。在之前的3年里该血清型在该岛未被检测到。基因组序列测定和分析表明,其与两年前在马提尼克岛分离出的登革热3型病毒有共同起源。
