Abstract excerpt

With the introduction of varicella vaccination, surveillance of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) strains occurring in cases of chickenpox or zoster should be considered. Differentiating Oka vaccine strain from wild-type VZV can be achieved only using molecular genotyping. In the present study, the VZV genotype was examined in 53 VZV strains isolated from patients with varicella or zoster and in 73 samples from skin...
