An explosive epidemic occurred in Madeira Island (Portugal) from October 2012 to February 2013. Published data showed that dengue virus type 1 introduced from South America was the incriminated virus. We aim to determine the origin of the strain introduced to Madeira by travellers returning to Europe. Using phylogeographic analysis and complete envelope sequences we have demonstrated that the most probable origin of the strain is Venezuela.
2012 年 10 月至 2013 年 2 月，马德拉岛（葡萄牙）爆发了一场疫情。已公布的数据显示，从南美洲传入的 1 型登革热病毒是罪魁祸首。我们的目的是确定传播至马德拉岛的病毒株是由返欧旅行者引入的。通过系统地理学分析和包膜区全序列分析，我们证明该病毒株最有可能源自委内瑞拉。
