Beginning in July 2012, a community-wide increase in the number of norovirus-associated acute gastroenteritis cases was observed during the summer months in Hong Kong. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of a novel recombinant norovirus genogroup II genotype 4 (GII.4) strain, named "2012v," which is associated with this "early" epidemic outside the usual winter season.
从2012年7月开始,在香港夏季期间,社区范围内与诺如病毒相关的急性胃肠炎病例数量有所增加。在此,我们报告了一种新型重组诺如病毒基因组II型4基因型(GII.4)毒株的完整基因组序列,该毒株名为“2012v”,与这个通常冬季以外的“早期”疫情相关。
