Abstract excerpt

A total of 298 patients with herpes zoster were recruited as part of 2 community-based studies in East London between 1998 and 2003. Single nucleotide-polymorphism analysis of 4 regions (genes 1, 21, 37, and 60) found that most genotypes were European strains C and B, representing 58% and 21% of all samples collected. No change in the proportion of these European clades has occurred during the past 80 years,...
