Abstract excerpt
Molecular epidemiological studies of hepatitis A outbreaks in Norway showed the emergence of Hepatitis A virus (HAV) genotype IIIA in association with parenteral transmission among haemophiliacs and intravenous drug users. The complete genomic sequence of one of these outbreak isolates, NOR-21, was determined. This is the first complete genomic sequence of HAV genotype IIIA. Phylogenetic analysis showed that...
